The BA (Hons) Product Design degree at the University of Lincoln has been developed with people’s needs at the fore, concentrating on the generation, delivery, and communication of ideas that challenge conventional thinking and open up new markets.
Students will be provided with the opportunity to become highly skilled, creative designers and shrewd product developers, with an understanding of target markets and consumer experiences, and an appreciation of how to design an object that will sell. With strong ties to the design industry, collaboration with agencies, placement opportunities, and support to launch a business, this course aims to prepare students for a career as a successful product designer. From a theoretical perspective, students have the opportunity to study trends, brands, cultures and ethics, as well as creative approaches to design. |
These courses are intended as guidelines. Speak to your guidance counsellor to see what courses are offered at your school. Students from Canada should visit our Entry Requirements webpage for details: http://www.lincoln.ac.uk/home/international/yourcountry/canada. |
Application Notes : | All applicants to the program will be invited for interview. The interview process usually involves a short presentation to applicants about the program and current projects. Program staff will review all portfolios without the applicant present and will then interview the applicant to find out more about their work and to ask possible questions relating to the personal statement. The program team will provide feedback on the portfolio of work on the day. In terms of the portfolio, we look for creative ability and primarily an enthusiasm for ideas and concepts; this can come from presentation of artworks which can be considered for three-dimensional manipulation, to recognised design projects in product, furniture, any three-dimensional area. An ability to communicate in two-dimensional and three-dimensional formats is desired, from quick idea sketches through to photography, digital manipulation, and presentation of proposals in a range of communication formats. |
