Study profile

The Graphic Design bachelor's programme equips you to become a critical thinker and versatile practitioner who can develop outstanding concepts for visual communication. At the Royal Academy of Art, The Hague (KABK) we encourage students to ask questions about the social responsibilities of a contemporary designer, tackle challenges posed by the rapidly evolving new-media landscape, and seek answers to the problems of tomorrow.

The programme is built around the main subjects of Design, Interaction, Image, Coding and Typography, and numerous electives including Letterstudio, Design Research, Moving Image and Design Practice. Our department is internationally known for its high level of education, its investigative and conceptual teaching approach, and excellence in the fields of typeface design and typography.
