Future design graduates will need to be both artists and engineers, combining the latest technology with a creative process.Good engineering alone can鈥檛 solve the complex challenges of the 21st century. Neither can design if the ideas go beyond the capabilities of today鈥檚 technology. And that鈥檚 where this course comes in. Our practical programme allows you to develop strong creative design capabilities 麻豆原创 engineering expertise. You won鈥檛 just apply your knowledge to solve problems. You鈥檒l become a creative designer who can step back and question why a problem exists and discover users that have been overlooked.From pitches to portfoliosIn tutorial-style sessions, we鈥檒l encourage you to think and develop as an independent designer, with pitches, presentations and portfolios to put your skills to the test. You鈥檒l explore material properties of artefacts as well as looking at their environmental impact and manufacturing.
