Students with Industrial Design I will have priority.

2 year international master students must have been approved for industrial design.

Om emnet

Transform is a course in industrial design dealing with new tools for developing, prototyping and conveying design solutions. Primacy is given to new contexts and themes that rather propose radical than incremental solutions. The course is organized around two extensive main iterations and phases. The first phase is based on a foresight a few decades ahead and then, as a second phase, the result of the first phase is back-casted in time and transformed by design to a more contemporary context. The outcome of both phases will be physical products presented by digital media and physical models.

The course focuses specifically on the use of various forms of physical and digital prototypes that supports the creative ideation process. Traditional sketching and model building will therefore be blended with e.g. material explorations, digital visualization and other forms of conveying a rich variety of different design concepts. Independent of which technology is used, emphasis will always be on the core competences traditionally found in industrial design.

Læringsutbytte

The student shall after the course be able to participate in more advanced and complex design processes; and doing so by building upon their training as an independent designer with a creative, aesthetic and designerly approach.

KNOWLEDGE

By the completion of the course the student shall have further knowledge about:

  • the kind of solution driven design process being so inherent in the industrial design tradition.
  • video techniques and storytelling in different media
  • the kind of practical and theoretical research methods developed within the industrial tradition.

SKILLS
By the completion of the course the student shall have further strengthened the ability to:

  • use an industrial designer’s toolbox including (but not limited to); sketching through different media, creative methods, team work, foresight and presentation.

COMPETENCE
By the completion of the course the student shall:

  • have a State of the Arts (SoA) competence in industrial design. 
  • have a reflective and realistic understanding of his/her present competence and what's required to achieve sufficient professional knowledge and skills within another year of practice at IDE/AHO. For each individual student, the curricula might therefore be slightly modified.
  • learn new things quickly, typically in entirely new context and often without any relevant users able to be informants or co-designers.
Praktisk organisering og arbeidsmåter

The work is arranged as a design studio with lectures, workshops and presentations woven in as a natural part of the activity. Both main phases involve workshop time, and the students inspire and evaluate each other along the way. Transform focuses in the students' reflections around a better future and doing so through design.

VurderingsmappeIndividuellBestått / ikke bestått The course will primarily be assessed through project work, self-assessments and deliveries submitted as design models, videos and presentations. The first module is assessed by involved teachers, and finally the whole course is assessed by an external supervisor. The student need pass both phases to pass the course.

For students that fail one of the two modules, a supplementary delivery can be submitted before the final assessment.
