This course aims at enabling students gain practical experience in design, and helps them understand the thinking process - from problem to solution. Students will identify an area of need or a problem and will be schooled in professional skills and techniques and appropriate theory directed towards solving the identified problem. They will build up their project report in first semester, and eventually carry out the project in second semester.
The research journey involves ideation, inspiration and implementation. Learners will come up with prototypes which will be representative of their effort in solving the identified societal problem. There will be a series of marked presentations accompanying this noble cause; this is a systematic way of monitoring progress and the whole project will be crowned by a final exhibition. The student needs to engage in every activity related to the project because all the engagement is evaluated.
Thank you so much. I wish you well in your endeavours.
