In this subject students will typically work in a collaborative environment to explore design within business, social and cultural contexts. Students will examine advanced design and communication concepts and produce creative projects. By using design thinking, students will examine behaviour of people, customers and/or users, their needs and motivations to develop communication and design solutions that will enrich people's lives. These projects typically require an integration of knowledge and skills gained throughout the entire media design program.
