Graphic design school

Post by Ptitpot » Fri Apr 04, 2008 12:54 pm

Hello everybody,

I am French, I just graduated from a business school in France.
I am now looking for a graphic design program in Helsinki.

I did some research on CIMO and on other websites but I didn't find anything. The education should be in English, I know, I ask for a lot :)

SO, anyone know a graphic design school in Helsinki ?!

Thanks in advance,

Thibault

CIMO pages: http://www.studyinfinland.fi

-> international programmes database (Arts and Design)

-> for example, http://www.taik.fi/mo/english/

Now, how could you miss that? :wink:

Sorry, I forgot to mention that I was looking for a short term degree (1 year) :wink:

Okay, that's a bit trickier then - the polytechnics and universities do not as such offer one-year degree programmes. You might find something in the (ammatti)opisto-type establishments (folk high school, adult education centres, vocational education) but whether those would be available in English... I doubt, but check out the links at this page http://www.opintoluotsi.fi - see e.g. http://opintoluotsi.fi/en-GB/Studies_in_English/ ...

Hei,

I'm now in very similar situation, so was wondering if you maybe found something in the meanwhile? I am an architect, but interested i graphic design and would like to get some education and professional skills in that area, also perhaps up to two year, doesn't necessary have to be a degree program. Thanx a lot for any info!

I have a vague recollection of something in Karis / Karjaa. Can't remember the name of the school though. I know they have several courses running in English, even though it is essentially a Swedish speaking establishment. ????


Edit: this was the place http://www.vnf.fi/ENGLISH/index.html but apparently they don't do graphic design.

KyAMK http://www.kyamk.fi/ has a english degree in Graphic design. You could try to do it as a part of Erasmus, e.g. The most renown Graphic Design school is in Lahti, btw, though its very difficult to get in there. No short-term, though, afaik.
