Develop the advanced digital skills required to utilise innovative computational methods in the creative and design industries. This programme addresses the need for creative professionals who are equipped with the IT skills, digital fabrication skills, simulation software skills, or the ability to design custom-software development tools to solve unique design problems. Our multidisciplinary approach will provide you with the knowledge and skills to discover innovative computational methods for use in the creative and design industries. In particular, we will look at form-finding using parametric and generative methods, preparing digital information for further rigorous analysis, and exploring contemporary issues in computational methods. You will be taught by experts across the subjects of architecture, computer science and engineering, which will give you a distinctly interdisciplinary approach to looking at design. The ethos of the course is based on the concept of rigorous creativity where algorithmic thinking, systematic parametric design, analytic methods, creative intuition and tectonic sensibilities are integrated into a more innovative design outcome than traditional methods currently allow.
A copy of your degree certificate and transcripts which show you have achieved a 2:1 honours degree in a relevant subject. If your degree certificate or result is pending, please upload any interim transcripts or provisional certificates. We welcome applications from candidates with a lower degree classification, provided it is in a relevant subject area and supported by professional/ practice experience and/ or a transcript demonstrating strong academic performance in related subjects. Relevant subjects include (but are not restricted to) architecture, computer science, engineering, interior design, landscape architecture, or urban design.
