Master of Design

Master of Design

A Master of Design (MDes, M.Des. or M.Design) is a postgraduate academic master degree in the field of Design awarded several academic institutions around the world. The degree level has different equivalecies; some MDes are equivalent to Master of Fine Arts and others to a Master of Arts or Master of Science postgraduate degree in alternative disciplines. It usually follows a Bachelor of Design degree and requires around two years of study, although there is no governing body or regulations.

Awarding institutions

Undergraduate studies

Some European institutions award an undergraduate MDes degree. Like all European master degrees, this usually requires a four year program with a research project or dissertation.

  • Coventry University, Coventry, UK, awards MDes in various Industrial Design courses including Transport and Automotive design, in four year programs.[20]
  • University of Leeds, Leeds, UK, awards a Master of Design degree specializing in Product Design, in a 4 year undergraduate program. Students are awarded a BDes after 3 years and can continue to a 4th year after which they receive a MDes.[21]
