Online Talk&Tour and early admissions for Master courses

Every year, Design Academy Eindhoven (DAE) offers prospective students the chance to get a taste of what it’s like to study at the Academy and get a sneak peek into the workings of each of its five Master’s courses with a Talk&Tour event. This online event allows prospective MA students to explore the DAE building and get a feel for what it’s like to study here. Immediately after the virtual Talk&Tour, the first round of the MA admissions will take place online. You can apply here for the early admissions until January 10, 2021 11:59pm CET.

During the Talk&Tour event, participants can take a virtual tour of the Academy building and join live seminars hosted by each department. Prospective students can meet the department heads, tutors and alumni as well as current students. The Student Council, student administration and student counsellor will also host online meet-and-greets to help answer practical questions about student life, visas, diplomas and the application procedure.

Register now for DAE’s MA Talk&Tour event. Once you have successfully registered, you will receive a unique code to enter DAE online on January 12, 2021.

On January 12, you will be able to explore a series of rooms at your own pace from 10am until 1pm CET, with seminars and meet-and-greets. You can hop from one room to another and meet tutors, current master’s students and representatives from the Student Council, student administration and the student counsellor to ask questions and find inspiration.
