Natio­nal Diploma in Fine Craft and Design (DNMADE)

The DNMADE (Diplôme Natio­nal des Métiers d’Art et du Design) is the new Natio­nal Diploma of higher edu­ca­tion in Contem­po­rary Craft and Design that will confer on its holder a Bache­lor of Arts degree. DNMA­DE1 will replace the foun­da­tion year in 2018 – 2019 (see course struc­ture). In 2019 – 2020, DNMA­DE2 will replace BTS1, and BTS2 will be repla­ced by DNMA­DE3 in 2020 – 2021. The first DNMADE stu­dents to gra­duate will be in 2021.

Over a 3-year study period, the DNMADE stu­dents will gra­dually spe­cia­lise and become more and more inde­pendent and pro­fes­sio­nal. Ensaama offers 17 courses ope­ning up to a wide range of fields in Crafts and Design. Our cur­ri­cu­lum shows that not only do we aim to form spe­cia­lists in a par­ti­cu­lar field of study, but we also fami­lia­rise future prac­ti­tio­ners with the various aspects of contem­po­rary craft and design.
