This course invites designers and non-designers to apply design thinking and business-speak to create innovative and purposeful outcomes. In this course, you sharpen your strategic edge by expanding your entrepreneurial and business capabilities. If you are a non-designer, you learn to be a creative thinker. You bring the knowledge from your past education and practice, combine them with the subject knowledge of design management, and create solutions that are not just aesthetically pleasing but also functional, viable, and purposeful. The course brings excellent networking opportunities for you to facilitate knowledge building and collaborative learning. In this postgraduate course, we teach you the interdisciplinary issues that design managers work with, such as business, marketing, technology, and art. Immersed in practice, you acquire the skills and the confidence to manage and lead a project. You are encouraged to push the boundaries and to put forward new, improved ideas that are innovative and purposeful.
Either a first or second class honours degree in a related subject or, equivalent qualifications/experience. Non-standard applicants with a non-design related degree and/or extensive work experience are offered a place on the course on a case-by-case basis. They may be invited for an interview.
International applicants should note that this course requires a high standard of reading, writing, and listening skills; full-time students are expected to have a minimum English standard of IELTS 6, with a minimum of 5.5 in each of the listening, reading, writing, and speaking components.
