Welcome to CCDN271: Design as Inquiry

Why 'Design as Inquiry"?
Rapid innovations, expanding technologies, and a voracious culture of social media serve to increase the impact and implications of the economic, political, and ecological conditions we face today. More than ever before then, it is essential that design as a profession and designers as individuals integrate reflection and criticism into the practice of design. Design as Inquiry asks students to approach the study and practice of design critically and provocatively from a multi- disciplinary perspective.

What can be gained from 'Design as Inquiry?
This course will build upon students' base design knowledge and skills, expanding this intellectual framework and applying new ideas to the examination and critique of design.
