- This course 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.
- This multidisciplinary approach will provide students with the knowledge and skills to discover innovative computational methods for use in the creative and design industries.
- In particular, they will look at form-finding using parametric and generative methods, preparing digital information for further rigorous analysis, and integrating the logic of digital fabrication into the early stages of design.
- Students will be taught by experts across the subjects of architecture, computer science and engineering, which will give them a distinctly interdisciplinary approach to looking at design.
- During the course, students will be able to develop and specialise in areas of interest to they through a range of optional modules and their choice of dissertation topic.
- Topics students may specialise in include algorithmic thinking in parametric design and form-finding, performance-based design and analysis, or design for digital fabrication.
