Annotation

Transportation Design deals with the design of mobility, explores and designs concepts for their future, creates new perspectives, changed perspectives, innovations in systems and products. Transportation designers must be willing and able to question existing habits, processes and structures, to rethink and to create specific ideas for the concepts developed in this way for vehicles and the world surrounding them and to develop them in detail. For their work, Transportation Designers therefore require both theoretical knowledge of social relationships and mechanisms, technical developments and development directions, specialist knowledge of automotive engineering and, above all, their willingness and ability to innovate. "Good design is characterised by its simplicity in complexity," says Professor Kurt Beyer.
