Advanced Design Industry Studio (12287.1)

In this unit students will further develop their disciplinary skills and understanding in a Studio learning environment of exploration and iterative design processes. The Studio aims to enhance learning frameworks and engagement with professional modes of practice. Projects may include a 'competition' project opportunity drawn from local or international design contexts, a 'live' project, or a 'simulated' work integrated learning project undertaken in relation to Industry, community and professional interfaces. The Studio will address emerging issues and concerns within contemporary practice contexts.

Learning outcomes

After successful completion of this unit, students will be able to:
1. Demonstrate developing design skills and application within their disciplinary area;
2. Critically analyse and interrogate project scope with rigour and focus;
3. Creatively explore possible design responses to complex issues and concerns; and
4. Engage with industry, community and professional contexts to further their disciplinary understanding and knowledge.
