The work in the Bachelor’s course Design and Product Development (C-level) will demonstrate independence and engineering skills. Proposals for projects will be presented during the introductory session. The project must have significant technical content and communicate through text and images. Briefings from the projects will take place throughout the course. The course introduces students to visualization and communication, training technical and visual skills in 3D graphics and presentation software. The visualization course also teaches students how to choose appropriate media and communications methods. Teaching is given in classes and small groups and each student reports individually. On completion of Study Period 3, each student makes a presentation demonstrating their skills in the visualization programs.
