This double degree enables students to combine business management skills with a studio major, developing core competencies such as critical and analytical thinking, business communication and decision-making. The Design program prepares graduates for diverse professional practice as designers through practical and theoretical learning. The first year focuses on the development of manual and technological skills, design thinking, problem-defining and solving. Students will gain an understanding of the changing role of design and how they can become leaders in the industry. In the following years, students work on industry-related and research projects and specialise in selected studio areas. Graduates are skilled in creative design and software application and are able to effectively and efficiently manage creative ventures from a business perspective.
Taking a multidisciplinary approach, the interaction design major will develop your technical competency and digital creativity.
