BDes (Hons) Interactive Media Design

BDes (Hons) Interactive Media Design is a studio‑based course for students who want to lead the design of the future. As software and hardware become ever more integrated, designers with the confidence to work creatively with technology are increasingly in demand. This course is for those who want to design for people who occupy that world. Entering directly into Year 3, you'll join an established design studio environment where learning is led through making, experimentation and critical enquiry. The course introduces a range of viewpoints on how technology can be shaped through design, from screen‑based interfaces to interactive installations and connected products. We believe design is a 'third discipline' between the Sciences and the Arts & Humanities. Design is concerned with practicality, ingenuity and what is 'appropriate'. The design‑research‑led approach you will develop is highly valued by industry. You'll learn how to interpret complex real‑world challenges and respond with thoughtful, purposeful prototypes. By the time you graduate, you'll be able to contribute meaningfully to multidisciplinary design teams, using both creative practice and technical understanding to design experiences that make the world better for people.
