Design Production KIT617
Introduction
This unit explores the relationship between design and industry to develop skills in the planning, development, and production of products and services for a target market or use-case scenario. You will learn how to identify opportunities for new product and service development, be introduced to production workflows and supply chains, and develop industry focused design and communication skills. You will also develop foundational professional skills for project planning and management. The output of the unit is a prototype for a viable product or service advanced through a process of opportunity identification and analysis, iterative design development, and testing.
