Eger Media and design institute

For more than eighty years, art educaion has been an integral part of the two-and-a-half-century-old higher education in Eger. Characteristics of the Department of Drawing, founded in 1948, was determined by teacher training until the early nineties. Later, in 1993, a drawing-visual communication program started, and in 2013, a master’s program in graphic design was initiated, which was supplemented with a bachelor’s program in 2017. After the change of the management in 2021, an independent institute was created from the Department of Media and Design. In our bachelor’s degree program, students can choose from graphic design, web design, animation, and media design specializations. 

After mastering the basic theoretical and technical knowledge, the graduates of our BA program will be able to create printed or multimedia works and applications, graphic and visual designs, illustrations, and what is more, 2D and 3D animations. With artistic sensitivity and creativity, they create their visual solutions for different actors of the economy.      

The graduates from our MA program can participate in the planning and execution processes at high level, even as managers, art directors. They acquire an autonomous creative attitude that independently interprets the challenges of the age. They have professional foundations and methods in graphic design and in related fields. We consider it important to develop an experimental viewpoint, as well as creating creative responsibility and a life-long research attitude.       

Thanks to the constantly changing richness of forms and methods of visual media, a continuous dialogue has been created between various ideas, experiments, and schools. In this environment, openness to innovation and the courage to experiment play prominent roles. Our most important goal is to support our graduates who can give independent and mature answers to present and future challanges.
