Sustainability in Design Studies at Aalto University
Sustainability thinking is integrated into Design Studies at Aalto at both bachelor’s and master’s levels. While bachelor studies primarily emphasise the environmental impacts of product design and material choices, as well as the designer’s capacity to influence these elements through their own actions, master’s studies focus on educating the students about the necessary system-level changes.
