S002558 Major Design Project
Synopsis
This unit represents the final stage of a multi-part design project and students are expected to continue with the work initiated in Design project (part one). Defined designs are expected to be detailed resulting in an assessable design outcome. Regular group and individual critiques will be undertaken as the project develops. Both the intentions of students and the results of their work are debated in group discussions and critical sessions. Students will be expected to demonstrate a strong capability to detail design issues. This unit is only available to students enrolled in the double award Master of Industrial Design with Southeast University, China.
