Overview

This unit offers a project-based approach to deeper learning in industrial design. By means of an industrial design studio project, you will apply and extend your current knowledge of industrial design practice and relevant theory and be guided through a formal design process in which to undertake this. You will also be encouraged to use a mixture of creative and analytical problem solving techniques in order to reach a design solution, which will be communicated through a range of suitable media including prototypes and models.
