DSGN3702 Design Studio

An industry focused capstone project simulating a real context to provide students with an experience of the multi-disciplinary nature of design and business problem solving. The project will be developed in conjunction with selected professionals and/or a client who presents a current business problem. This will require the application of innovative design, manufacturing and business model techniques in a consulting framework integrating topics studied throughout the course.

The topic will be delivered in conjunction with the New Venture Institute (NVI) and students will work in teams along with industry professionals and project managers, mentors and advisors.
