  • Textile Design

It is important that you specify the subject area you wish to develop and explore in your design projects in your application. This choice will shape the professional feedback, guidance, and challenges you receive, focusing on practical skills within your chosen area of expertise.

In addition to selecting your subject area, we ask you to choose from three thematic focus areas:

  • Social Design (Design for People)
  • Sustainability and Design (Design for Planet)
  • Play and Design (Design for Play)

The focus areas provide a unique opportunity to connect and develop your subject area and learning within themes and industries you are passionate about and see yourself contributing to in the future.
