The course addresses that future designers need to master critical thinking. Through a theoretical point of departure in critical design, speculative design and design fiction the course focuses on carrying out a critical approach as the core foundation in your project work.
You are asked to identify and illuminate on a social or societal challenge to be addressed by design practice in order to create awareness and spark discussions among relevant stakeholders.
After finishing the course, you are expected to have enhanced your capabilities in framing a social or societal challenge and to develop a design project addressing the identified challenge rooted in critical design practice.
