Design and Technology (Product Design)

Course summary

Designers are the makers of the built environment; they change lives and shape our interactions with the world around us. Design has a reciprocal nature with culture, economy, geography and history in that it always starts with the needs and motivations of people. An education in Design and Technology not only encourages observational and analytical skills but develops presentation and communication. It invites students to explore past objects as an archaeologist and to design what the world will look like in the future.
