Yes. It is quite normal for students entering creative education to be uncertain about the differences between Product Design, UX, Communication Design, Animation & Game Design, Fashion, Transportation Design, Interior Architecture and other specialisations. WUD's admission and academic teams can help applicants understand the nature of different disciplines and relate them to their interests, abilities and career aspirations. Applicants are encouraged to use the admission interaction as an opportunity for career counselling rather than simply selecting a programme by name. Even if you realize at a later date that the specialization you chose is not for you, WUD allows you to move to another one after the first year, which is the common foundation year.
