Course summary

Design and Technology has a significant role in the new curriculum as part of the Science and Technology area of learning and the global imperative to develop STEM subjects.

The diverse nature of design and technology means that you will be in a position to inspire your pupils to explore many cross-curricular educational pathways, allowing them to be creative, ethical designers of the future.

You will develop a range of skills needed in Design and Technology across all age groups at secondary school.

You will collaborate with scientists and computer scientists to bring your subject to life.

You will use D&T to teach the next generation problem solving skills and stimulate creativity so that they can meet society’s needs and wants.

Lectures are based in the IQ building in Swansea.
