Overview

Do you want to learn how to design? Using the Delft Design Approach, you will learn how to use a number of key design methods to create meaningful products and services.

This course is an introduction to the Delft Design Approach offering a model and a set of signature methods from Delft to teach you how to get from understanding the user in context to defining a meaningful design challenge and – in the end – deliver a great design! The course challenges you to experience the design process yourself and reflect on your work with the help of students and excellent teaching staff from Delft, and industrial experts.

No previous knowledge of design methods is required, yet some experience with designing (something) is helpful.

What you'll learn:

  • How to study users in their own environment;
  • How to translate user insights into a design challenge that will spark creativity;
  • How to create a meaningful design to meet your challenge; 
  • How to design and to structure your projects with the support of design thinking, a model and several methods; 
  • How to evaluate and present your design.

The Product Design - The Delft Design Approach programme is a part of the Product Design and Health Professional Certificate offered at Delft University of Technology (TU Delft) - DelftX.
