As of the winter semester 2022/23, the diploma programs at the HfG have been replaced by new bachelor's and master's programs. For the current diploma students, this does not change anything and no one has to change the degree program.

A voluntary change from the diploma to the bachelor's degree is possible via the regular admission procedure and thus again for the winter semester 2023/24, then into the maximum third semester. Diploma students who have already completed a degree program (e.g. BA/BFA) can also apply for the Master's program under the same conditions.

As of the winter semester 2022/23, the diploma degree programs at the HfG have been replaced by bachelor's and master's degree programs. These degree programs are possible in the two HfG departments of art and design:
