DESIGN FUTURE LAB
In the increasingly integrative yet competitive world, design and innovation are undeniably two of the most important elements in value creation in products and services as well as in improvement of efficiency in business management. Design and innovation play a key role in stimulating economic growth as can be seen in the success of Singapore, South Korea, and Switzerland.
This paradigm shift imposes a new challenge on the design education sector more than ever. How can we equip our graduates with essential design and research skills together with knowledge in technology, marketing, and business, to face a new paradigm in the future?
Design Future Lab was established based on a simple question of “how the future of Thailand 4.0 development would be?” It serves as an incubating platform that allows and inspires students to learn outside the classroom through projects initiated by students-for students. Students gain experiences by working collaboratively with business partners or affiliated academic institutions, in searching for new solutions to real-world problems.
