Are you a problem solver? Do you look at issues in industry and society today, and think about how you could make it better? Do you enjoy looking at a challenge and coming up with a design that fixes it? If yes - Design is the course for you. Blending design thinking with physical and digital prototyping, you’ll learn all the intellectual and practical skills you need to become a well-rounded product designer. You’ll be able to put your methods, materials, manufacturing and engineering learning into practice by developing a product from concept to final model and prototype. You’ll also have the opportunity to spend a year on paid industrial placement. In your fourth year, you’ll exhibit in our end-of-year degree show. We’re one of the longest-running degrees to have held IED accreditation. Our students have an amazing track-record in winning national and international prizes over the last three decades, with recent winning prizes being awarded to our product design students; including the Design Innovation in Plastics Award, and the Vision Direct’s Visionaries competition. Students joining us really are joining a winning team that will enhance their future job prospects.
