Expand your understanding of design in its contemporary and future contexts. Drawing upon your knowledge and experience, you will push the boundaries and purposes of design by integrating design research methodologies within theoretical and experimental frameworks. Our approach to critical making actively integrates research and practice. Your program offers opportunities to engage in independent and collaborative advanced-level research, studio practice, prototyping, co-creation methods, and critical studies. While the MDes centres around studio practice, you will be asked to develop a rigorous critical framework in order to synthesize research, theory, and practice, and to recognize and develop new areas of design practice. As an MDes candidate, you will have the opportunity to situate your own research within a range of established and emerging design fields including: Health Design, Recreation Design, Soft Product Design, Communication Design, Product Design, Industrial Design, Sustainable Design, and Service Systems Design.
