Course summary

Lancaster’s approach to design reflects a department that is actively seeking new and innovative ways to apply design. The degree is taught by leading design researchers, and it moves beyond the scope of traditional disciplines such as graphic or product design. Instead you will be given the opportunity to develop the skills to solve complex cultural, social and environmental problems by combining design thinking with innovation, technology, business and research. This will equip you for a range of exciting careers in new and emerging industries.- The course is structured around four aspects of design: materials, people, products and places. They allow you the opportunity to develop vital problem-finding and problem-solving abilities.- History, theory and intellectual content are combined with creative design practice and design management.- You will have the opportunity to develop practical skills in prototyping, visualisation and presentation in our purpose-built design studios and workshop.- Through authentic projects and live briefs, including a group consultancy project, you’ll gain real world experience and prepare yourself for your future career.- We aim to include guest speakers and external organisations to provide insight into design and related industries, giving you the opportunity to build professional contacts and gain work experience during your degree.You can find out more about our facilities, research and the work experience we offer on our departmental website.
