Whether it involves a poster, magazine, website, app or trade fair stand: Today, communication takes place everywhere and at all times. Communication designers have the task of rendering complex information and messages that are delivered via these different channels understandable to their recipient. Their goals vary depending on the project at hand: For example, they can optimise a product’s advertising impact or ensure that a company can highlight its own uniqueness in a uniform and coherent way through its corporate design.
In order to implement this successfully in our digital world, communication designers need to possess a wealth of foundation knowledge, as well as expertise in areas such as web design, cross-media strategies or mobile applications.
The online study programme in Communication Design provides you with the necessary knowledge in all relevant areas of visual communication – be it print, online, mobile, video, infographics, space and presentation.

Theorie-Praxis-Transfer im Fernstudium Kommunikationsdesign
Lerne, Dein neues Wissen direkt anzuwenden – für optimale Erfolgs- und Karrierechancen
Während Deines Fernstudiums wird jederzeit sichergestellt, dass Du einen effektiven Theorie-Praxis-Mix erhältst, damit Du Dein Wissen im Alltag direkt erproben und anwenden kannst. Deshalb erhältst Du im Fernstudium Kommunikationsdesign sechs Portfolio-Kurse, die Deine praktischen Fähigkeiten weiter ausbauen. Darunter sind Kurse im Bereich Designgrundlagen oder Print- und Layoutsysteme sowie Portfolio-Projekte im Grafikdesign, Digital Design, Corporate Design und Applikationsdesign. In einem Portfolio-Kurs kannst Du den Designprozess praxisnah erleben und detailliert nachvollziehen, da das Portfolio-Projekt ein auf die Fernlehre abgestimmtes Format ist – ohne Präsenz.
In den Portfolio-Kursen durchläufst Du ein gestalterisches Projekt analog zum iterativen Designprozesses – vom Briefing über die Konzeption und Ideen-Entwicklung bis hin zur Erstellung von Scribbles, digitalen Entwürfen und der Abgabe des fertigen Endproduktes. In dieser Phase kannst Du Dein theoretisch erworbenes Wissen direkt anwenden. Ziel der Portfolio-Kurse ist es, neue Gestaltungskompetenzen zu entwickeln und die unterschiedlichen Phasen des iterativen Designprozesses kennenzulernen und zu reflektieren. Zudem kann aufgrund vorgegebener Deadlines die Arbeitspraxis perfekt simuliert und erlebbar gemacht werden, u.a. auch unter der Verwendung der Adobe Creative Cloud.

This way, you can study alongside your job or during your time off, whether at home or abroad. The content of the different models is identical. Depending on the study model, we will adjust your tuition fees accordingly. With the part-time variants, your weekly study workload is reduced.
Can't finish your degree in the allotted time? No problem! We will develop the right study model for everyone. If you realise that you need more time, you can easily switch to another study model with three months’ notice before the end of the month. These are our different study models:
