Postgraduate

MA Design: Management and Policy develops your ability to strategically apply design-led approaches in a range of commercial contexts. It focuses on human-centred design thinking and methods in the context of organisational problems, which include management, strategy and policy. Graduates are able to shape the emergent roles of design in an increasingly complex world by initiating and managing design projects, conducting design research and by contributing to the development of design policies in a wide range of organisations.

MA Sustainability, Innovation and Design develops design-literate professionals for creative roles in industry and the public sector. Graduates will be well prepared to develop and shape innovative solutions for a sustainable future. Conducting design projects within interdisciplinary teams and tackling critical contemporary issues, students explore the future directions of innovation, sustainability, design research and professional practice.

MRes Design (Master of Research) is a highly flexible research degree for students who wish to pursue a specific topic area in depth, rather than taking a traditional taught degree. It aims to develop design-literate individuals in applying a range of research and creative methods to achieve robust design solutions that address the challenges of design, innovation, and sustainability in the 21st century. For 2010-11 entry, three bursaries are available to cover tuitions fees at UK/EU levels (£4,170). Please contact Professor Stuart Walker for more details.
