In the first quarter of 2020, a focus* has been done on the placement of the 2018 graduating class. Here are the figures to remember.
The end of studies internship (pre-integration internship in their 2nd year of master) is critical since over 50% of 2018 graduates are hired by the company in which they did their internship.
International careers: a constant trend
17% of our young graduates from 2018 are pursuing international careers. They have headed for 9 destinations: Germany, the Netherlands, Belgium, the United Kingdom, Canada, Ireland, Mexico, Sweden and Denmark.
This openness to the international market can be explained by several factors: the opportunity to study MDes Transcultural Design in China, India, Canada, Brazil, the obligation for students in their MDes program first year to follow a semester or an internship abroad in a foreign company or agency.
