Design in Culture and Context is a first year seminar for Design Studies majors. The course examines design action and the relationships between design and other systems, chiefly the natural and built environment, society and culture, and technology and economics. Recent independent studies, field projects, and special initiatives by artists, designers, and principal investigators will introduce students to the negotiations that take place among the decision-makers, manufacturers, and civic and community patrons in understanding the nature and limits of a variety media, processes of design, and the cultural implications of researching meaningful solutions to current challenges and public needs.
