Overview
The Introduction to Product Design course at the University of the Arts London (UAL) focuses on project-based learning and hands-on experimentation predominantly by sketching and model-making.
About the course
- Different theories and industry topics within product design will be introduced, followed by practical tasks to give students the opportunity to apply these concepts in practice.
- These will be assigned as practical homework tasks to maximise students learning during the 6-week course. Students will be asked to upload tasks prior to the live sessions so they can receive constructive feedback and receive sufficient support during the course.
