University of Queensland
Bachelor of Design
Good design is essential. It starts with identifying a problem and ends with an outcome, driven by the desire to meet the needs of the user.
The Bachelor of Design is a multidisciplinary program that incorporates elements of business, IT, architecture and the humanities. You’ll develop a flexible range of skills to succeed in almost any industry – from digital communication or industrial design to spatial and human-centred design.
The program offers a new take on design – where you’ll challenge conventional thinking and bring a different mindset to business and societal problems. You’ll graduate with the creativity and knowledge necessary to generate and design ideas for a better, more sustainable world.
This is the ideal program for those who are looking to cultivate specialist capabilities in problem identification, critical thinking and designing for purpose. Through practical studio-based projects, you’ll work in teams to collaborate, challenge assumptions, prototype innovative and sustainable solutions, and systematically solve problems in creative and novel ways.
You can specialise in 1 or 2 majors that align with your preferred career pathway. Choose from Anthropology, Buildings and Environment, Environment and Society, Information Environments, Innovation and Entrepreneurship, and Media and Digital Cultures.
You’ll join a new breed of designers who possess the expertise and creativity to respond to the complex needs of a contemporary world.
