In addition, the school also provides many speech opportunities, such as practical courses, activities to disseminate works outside the university, participation in theatre based cooperative production and workshops that invite domestic and foreign directors.


Design


The school comprehensively studies all types of design of advertisements, posters, information media, graphic services, household products, appliances, cars, furniture, houses, etc., and trains designers with extensive knowledge and high specialization.
