On successful completion of the course, each student will have:
- determined his/her areas of professional interest, and proposed project statements suitable to the final year design studio;
- gained experience in managing and working on a large-scale design project with an external advisor;
- gained experience in interdisciplinary collaboration involving marketing, production, and design disciplines;
- finalised a project statement in accordance with researched user needs and project-relevant constraints;
- employed creativity exercises (e.g. scenario building, brain storming, matrices, etc.) to develop new design concepts;
- provided regular feedback to course instructors on the communications held with his/her external advisor;
- prepared a comprehensive project development portfolio that demonstrates exploration of existing design solutions, potential user groups, design strategies, design criteria, related production technologies, and iterated design solutions;
- provided evidence of progress in his/her design process through sketches, mock-ups and digital models during regular studio critiques and juries/presentations;
- presented a final design proposal (comprising a concept, usage scenarios, product/UI features and technical details) in a professional manner using appropriate media (e.g. digital models, visualizations, technical drawings, physical appearance or working model, working UI, prototype, etc.), to a standard suitable for public exhibition.
