Program Overview

Contemporary product design spans industries such as consumer electronics, furniture, medical devices, automotive and more. It combines creativity, functionality, and technical knowledge to create innovative, sustainable products that meet user needs and are feasible to produce. Today's designers must navigate rapid technological advancements, sustainability challenges, and user experience to create functional and socially responsible designs.

Our BA (Hons) Product Design course provides an enriching experience, offering you the essential knowledge, skills, and understanding to create relevant products and furniture. With a strong emphasis on 'learning through making', our approach integrates innovation, user-centred design, social awareness, sustainability, and commercial understanding.

What's covered in this course?

Throughout the course, you'll explore diverse manufacturing scales within product and furniture design, guided by contemporary design philosophies. We emphasise hands-on experiences, introducing you to materials, methods, and technologies, both digital and analogue, empowering you to develop your unique creative design focus.

We promote the importance of sustainable, inclusive, and ethical design practices, enhancing your learning experience. This encourages you to take an active role in contributing to a better world through considered and thoughtful design.

Situated in the heart of the 'manufacturing midlands,' our course offers you a unique opportunity to shape your identity as a Product and Furniture designer in a region celebrated for its creativity and industrial legacy.

Our curriculum extends beyond the design studio, fostering your professional growth through collaborative projects and active involvement with creative industries. This not only prepares you for future employment but also equips you for further exploration of your creative passions.
