This three year degree programme aims to give you a practical, relevant and challenging design education. During your studies you will have the opportunity to develop your creative, intellectual and practical talents, and to acquire both the head and hand skills for a professional design career.
Over the three years the programme changes from being tightly structured and tutor directed in year one to more student directed and based on independent learning in year three.
Graduates from this programmes will be able to initiate, develop, and complete creative, innovative, functional and aesthetic solutions to both simple and complex design problems. They will have the necessary skills and knowledge to take up employment with a wide range of design based companies or to undertake freelance work.
