Course General Description

Information Experience Design (IED) students design experiences to communicate information, creating installations and interventions using all senses, modes and media, including sound and moving image.

Disciplines

Aligning with the School-wide academic framework, the main practical work takes place in School-wide Electives in the autumn and spring terms.

The Informed Practice unit runs alongside, providing you with a grounding in relevant theory and methods. These will be put into practice in workshops where you’ll engage directly with various tools and technologies, operating across pathways.

The summer term will enable you to focus primarily on your dissertation, and you’ll focus on your chosen pathway in the Experiential Research unit. Seminars and workshops will be held weekly across all three terms, with core curriculum and skills being front-loaded in term one.

You’ll also be given a personal tutor for the year, who will organise at least one in-depth tutorial per term.
