Our Design and Technology degree delivers a sound knowledge of design from both a theoretical and a practical standpoint.
This program can lead to multiple career outcomes, including product design, packaging, rapid prototyping, 3D modelling, exhibition design and secondary school teaching (with additional degrees). You will gain a comprehensive knowledge of all design areas, but also the flexibility to specialise.
Your practical experience is a combination of the University’s own state-of-the-art technologies and access to an extensive network of external industry-based resources where you will gain industry networks.
During your final year or at the conclusion of your study, you will undertake a 10-week industry experience session, giving you priceless real-life experience in developing new products within a company or organisational environment. Additionally, upon graduation you are eligible for membership to the Design Institute of Australia (DIA).
