What is GRDE1026 about?

This unit allows students to develop fundamental knowledge of design thinking processes and approaches to solving problems. Through an exploration of a range of introductory research methods relevant to the disciplines of Design, students will approach design problems in an organised and creative way. Design thinking and doing research methods focus on understanding human needs through observation, interviews and a number of other essential design research methods leading to the analysis (and in some cases re-definition) of a design problem. Applied to practical design problems, learners work both individually and in teams.
