Students who have another Federal VET Diploma, a vocational, technical or Baccalaureate, a technical secondary school certificate or an equivalent qualification may be admitted sur dossier. In addition, the admission procedure must be passed, which consists of a project work, its presentation, an admission interview and an assessment of the application dossier.

Continuing education, further training at a College of Higher Education to become a qualified interior designer CHE is not completely identical to a Bachelor's degree in interior design. As an interior designer, you will create concepts for the design of various private or public spaces, as well as temporary spaces such as trade fair stands or exhibitions. CHE interior designers are mainly found in development and design offices and, in addition to interior design, work primarily for suppliers and furniture manufacturers, although the two job titles overlap in many respects.
