Advanced Project in Design

• ApresentaçãoPresentation

  This UC from the projectual point of view aims to unify all the knowledge acquired by students over the 3 academic years, preparing students for the last project unit (Project of internship / author) where they will have to acquire autonomy skills. It also aims to build the transformational mind set of the role of the designer in the future, which will have to adapt to a constant attitude of evolution, looking for new ideasand always giving priority to building a better world.
• ProgramaProgramme

  Students are challenged to develop Design solutions focusing on a real entity that wants to think with students about future scenarios about their products. The dynamics of the Curricular Unit project is based on four pillars / stages: 1- Discovery a) observe, b) listen, c) contextualize, d) understand e) define; 2- Purpose a) not object b) objectify c) debug; 3- Concept the investigation, b) draw, c) discuss, d) improve; 4- Solution a) strategy, b) systematize; c) finalize; d) present Through the application of Design methods associated with each phase, the student will have the opportunity to complement one more design methodology, replicable for any project. being here the objective of stimulating the complementarity of the rationals, the instrumentalization of the construction of future scenarios and speculative solutions.
• ObjectivosObjectives

  Develop capacity for reflection and critical sense: Be able to analyze future contexts and speculation to present new solutions in the short, medium and long term. Argue and defend ideas. Master the design process. Understand the creative/company relationship and introduce new dimensions. Knowing how to collaborate and innovate with others. Acquire the ability to be autonomous.
