The aims of this module are to:

• enable students to develop a systematic understanding of how personal practice operates within the context of international design competitions
• develop critical understanding of project and design management strategies, methods and techniques current in their specialist fields
• synthesise and present information to define the parameters of viable specialist design practicess

 The aims of this module are to:

• enable students to develop a systematic understanding of personal practice as critically evaluated against the context of international communication design
• develop critical understanding and knowledge of problem-solving strategies, multi-modal methods, and techniques in use by international peers
  
• synthesise information to define the parameters of specialist design practice that characterise an advanced level of international communication design practice, synthesising this as an advanced communication design artefact.

The aims of this module are to:

•  Enable a systematic understanding of research and project management tools to generate working data to guide graphic practice in resolving a design problem in abstract and unpredictably complex contexts
• Select and apply advanced principles, concepts, theoretical frameworks, and approaches to critically develop responses design problems
• Synthesise advanced and specialist design research and practice outcomes that communicate design solutions
• Develop and present action plans and responses to specialist design projects

The aims of this module are to:

• Enable students to develop advanced personal practice through specialist field investigations: history, philosophies materials, processes, and techniques;
• Empower students develop independent thinking by experimenting with specialist project materials and processes;
• Critically reflect on design outcomes and challenge the boundaries of relevant conceptual frameworks
