In short
The School of Arts, Design and Architecture of Aalto University was founded in 1871 as the Craft School and became part of Aalto University in 2010, when the University of Art and Design Helsinki merged with two other universities. Its Department of Design offers bachelor's majors in design and fashion and master's programmes in Fashion, Clothing and Textile Design, Collaborative and Industrial Design and Contemporary Design, where students develop material-specific skills in ceramics, glass, biodesign or wood.
