Objectives

To learn about design

The modules’ main purpose is to clarify what design is and to show how designers can play a major part in the various phases of product, interface and service development.

To understand and to practice the designer’s tools

The aim is not so much to turn students into apprentice designers as to help them understand the design process better, so they can draw on it to think up original, innovative design methodologies or collaborate effectively with designers for their current or future projects.

To learn to manage design projects

These modules also aim to provide Paris-Saclay ecosystem professionals with the keys to engaging designers in the development of their current or future projects.
