What You'll Learn

The aim of the BA (Hons) Design for Social Futures programme is to foster a learning environment for you to gain flexibility – from leadership to co-creation and collaboration, and adapt quickly to challenges faced by today’s society. Challenges where design thinking, innovation and value creation are key to unlocking opportunities for all economic sectors of society, especially in the non-design sectors.

The programme is rooted in areas such as service design, user interface and user-experience design, information and data, social design, transformative systems, speculative and strategic designs, as well as digital content and narrative design and environments.

From working in big tech to social enterprises, independent ventures to co-creation endeavours, you will be able to adapt to your environment and respond to evolving societal constraints within and beyond, and imagine new potentialities for society. Designed to respond to emerging developments in design and non-design sectors, the programme brings together three major centres: design, industries and enterprise, and cultures and community.

The curriculum focuses on design practice with solutions prioritising human and non-human perspectives, realities and experiences. You will be encouraged to ask valid, significant and complex questions, using an innovative pedagogical approach to mediate between past and future, global and local, traditions and contemporaries.

The programme presents content to reflect the changing global and ecological climate and emerging trends through a dynamic and idea-driven learning environment, while addressing the influence of design practice on society in broad areas such as Creative Resets, Creative and Creator Communities, Health, Well-being and Care and Sustainability, Circularity and Regeneration.
