The philosophy of this course is to educate contemporary designers to meet current industry needs; it aims to educate hybrid designers who have the ability to evaluate and creatively use technology in a design context; the programme encourages students to develop and articulate their own unique approach to designing; through critical studies and contextualisation they come to understand some of designs big issues and apply these ideas in the development of their own work; students engage with real-world briefs through current design thinking; consolidation and articulation of ideas is communicated through a range of media; the course encourages the embodiment of concepts in professional and convincing forms; it also aims to develop designers who can re-appropriate existing and explore emerging technologies in a playful way and use them as a creative medium throughout the design process.

Location

University of Dundee is located in Dundee, a city in Scotland. Dundee is situated beside a broad estuary of the River Tay surrounded by hills and farmland.


The city is dominated by the basalt plug of an extinct volcano, called Dundee Law. If one climbs 571 feet, one will be rewarded with fantastic views of the city and its surroundings. Dundee is south-facing and is Scotland's sunniest city. The climate is mild and snowfalls are rare. Lovers of the great outdoors will find that Dundee has a lot to offer all year round, both on land and water. Famous river fishing and golf courses are nearby, and an hour's drive will take one to magnificent mountains perfect for climbing, hiking, skiing or even snowboarding.


Dundee is called the City of Discovery and there's certainly plenty to discover. For example, Scott of the Antarctic's ship - RRS Discovery, built in Dundee - and the early 19th century warship, The Unicorn. There are good connections with the rest of the UK by train, coach and motorway. There are daily flights from Dundee airport to London City, Birmingham and Belfast. Edinburgh International airport, an hour away by motorway, provides a wider choice of destinations.
