UIC HGK Basel MDes Students visit Chicago

From April 10-18, 2015, students and faculty from the UIC HGK Basel program in Basel, Switzerland, were in Chicago for a week packed with productive exchange. The week began with a fieldtrip to the Mies Van Der Rohe Farnsworth House followed by shared presentations of masters thesis work, a collaborative workshop pairing teams of Chicago and Basel students, Chicago studio and museum tours, and a good amount of fun in between and along the way. 

The UIC Master of Design in Graphic Design is delivered in Chicago and in Basel Switzerland at the FHNW HGK Basel Visual Communication Institute.
