This course is designed for those aiming to excel in the product design industry, offering a pathway to careers that shape our material world. Choose this course for its immersive, hands-on approach that bridges theory with practical application, ensuring you're industry-ready upon graduation. Its distinctiveness lies in the integration of cutting-edge technologies like UX and digital fabrication, coupled with a focus on design that impacts everyday life and global challenges.
You will acquire a robust set of skills, including complex problem-solving, creative ideation, and the ability to prototype and test innovative design solutions. Learning occurs through direct engagement with materials and technologies in state-of-the-art workshops, complemented by a curriculum that balances technical prowess with an understanding of cultural and economic contexts.
By the end of the course, you'll be equipped not only for diverse roles in product development, sports technology, health, and humanitarian work but also for further specialisation or research in this dynamic field. Your education will be a blend of core subjects and electives, allowing you to tailor your expertise to areas like furniture design or sustainable practices, with the potential to lead your own design enterprise.
UTS believes a hands-on approach is fundamental for every aspiring designer. As such, the student's starting point is the individual design and making of an object. Throughout their studies students learn how to design, prototype and test design solutions, drawing on cutting-edge technologies and approaches, such as UX (user experience), wearables and electronics and gain hands-on experience in the faculty's digital and fabrication workshops.
Alongside a strong technical base, the degree applies the creative problem-solving required to design experiences that make a difference to everyday life, whether in developing economies or digital cultures. Central to this approach is an understanding of the relationships between objects, culture, economy, technology, business and human behaviour.
