The aim of the Graphic Design MA programme is to train graphic designers who are able to respond sensitively and progressively to global and local challenges and apply their knowledge in their role as an initiator in social, cultural and artistic projects.
The training focuses on design and art research, experimentation and collaboration with the intersections of art and science, as well as on social design, social responsibility and eco-conscious design approaches.
Our students, on account of the widespread professional recognition of the MA degree, their superior command of visual culture, and their high level of human and technological knowledge and media literacy, have an excellent track record in various fields of the creative industry, and the design and the art scene, both domestically and internationally.

Egy diploma megszerzése nem feltétlenül jelenti a szakmai út lezárását, ahogy a mesterszak kiválasztása sem csupán a következő lépcsőfok megtalálásáról szól. A folyamatosan változó világban egyre fontosabb, hogy az elképzeléseink kipróbálására és alakítására is nyitottak legyünk. A közelgő MOME MA Nyílt nap apropóján a szakmai önismeretről, a kísérletezésről és a továbbtanulásról beszélgettünk a MOME oktatóival, hallgatóival és a Konnekt Egyesület szakemberével.
The recipients of the Stefan Lengyel Scholarship of Excellence for the spring semester of 2026 have been announced. The sixteen winning projects include an animated series exploring children’s rights, a contemporary cemetery and memorial site, an inclusive tableware set for children, a documentary on collective trauma, and a project exploring the legacy of Tungsram.
This year, the MOME community celebrated the graduates of twelve MA and nine BA courses in a festive ceremony. Speeches were given by interior designer Mrs. Bánki née Laura Szerdahelyi, one of our jubilee graduates, who turns 91 this year and designed the interiors of Déli Railway Station; Curator and László Moholy-Nagy’s grandson Daniel Hug; and designer Stefan Lengyel, who is celebrating a milestone anniversary this year. In addition to conferring the degrees, this year’s Rector’s Special Awards and several professional awards were announced, and the Gold, Diamond and Iron jubilee graduates also received their certificates.
Events
On 21 October, the *The Next Station is...* exhibition of the Stefan Lengyel Scholarship of Excellence will open at Merlin. Celebrating the fifth anniversary of the exhibition, this year’s show presents the work of all 32 scholarship recipients from the 2025/26 academic year, this time outside the MOME Campus, in the iconic Merlin exhibition space in the city centre.
MOME is hosting its own exhibition at the Dutch Design Week in Eindhoven, as part of the Class of 2026 section!
The works on display grew out of material research, designer maker, graphic design, and textile design processes developed through MOME’s thematic courses, and its MA diploma preparation, research, and incubation mentoring programmes.
From 8–12 December, MOME KIPAK returns once again! Every corner of the campus will be filled with the works, exhibitions, installations, and presentations of MOME students.
