Are you looking for the perfect university to make your studies creative and practical? Would you like to know what it means to study at a private university—and why the New Design University is exactly the right choice for you?

At NDU, you’ll find degree programs that are as unique as you are. Whether it’s interior design, graphic design, management, or event engineering—design is always at the heart of what we do. You won’t find degree programs and university courses like these at any other German-speaking university.

Practical learning is at the heart of our program: Instead of just learning theory, you can apply your knowledge right away. Take our FutureLabs, for example—there, you’ll work together with other students and industry partners on innovative ideas and bring them to life.  

We give your ideas room to grow: the creative exchange between our programs fosters new perspectives and innovative approaches. You’ll never run out of ideas here. Our well-equipped workshops and spaces—from 3D printers and workbenches to mixing consoles—provide you with all the tools you need to bring your projects to life. Need a specific machine? No problem! After a brief orientation, you can also use the workshops at WIFI Lower Austria..

Smaller, more personal, better: Overcrowded lecture halls and impersonal lectures? Not here! At NDU, you’ll study in small groups that foster close interaction between students and faculty. Here, you’re not just a number—you’re an integral part of our community. This is evident not only in your studies but also at various events like the Lunchtime Lectures or student parties. Your feedback and suggestions are heard and directly incorporated into the further development of our degree programs.

St. Pölten - A Great Opportunity: Thanks to excellent public transportation links and direct connections to Vienna, the New Design University is just a stone’s throw away. The city of St.Pölten has a lot to offer, both culturally and socially—in cooperation with the NDU, for example, you can go to the theater for free. Are you thinking of moving to St. Pölten for your studies? There are several student dormitories in the vicinity of the NDU.
