Students complete two Level 8 30 credit components plus the following Level 9 components in sequential order:
Master Project Proposal
The Master studio requires that you put forward a brief for a self-initiated project of your choosing. It is possible to propose an individual, or group project, but team roles and assessments need to be carefully negotiated with the staff before approval can be obtained. For example, projects may result in static or interactive, print or digital, objects or installations, or approaches to service and experience. Your proposal must outline an executable project that can be developed to a masterate level. You will be mentored through proposal development by an academic staff with practice-based research expertise.
Master Project
The Master studio requires that you work to the proposal, which you generated in PGD007 to produce and actualise a project. This needs to exhibit a sophisticated understanding of the potential offered by contemporary design communication and thinking practice. Central to the component will be evidence of critical analysis, social engagement, reflective practice, all of which are encased within a refined visual language. You’ll draw on the practical, methodological, theoretical, and technical tools that you’ve developed over the duration of the programme to complete an effective project. You will be mentored through project development by an academic staff with practice-based research expertise.
