The School of Innovation and Technology aims to integrate social innovations that build upon technological innovations in a way that transcends traditional disciplinary boundaries within art and science.  It offers an opportunity for students to learn how to critique the ways we live using design in combination with scientific knowledge, by thinking about what the capacity of designers will be to look at key changes needed now in multiple aspects of our lives.  SIT will examine complex questions in fields such as healthcare, education, technology and pressingly within the context of the climactic and ecological crisis.

Design-led innovation

True innovation is made possible when designers collaborate creatively with experts in different fields to develop previously unimagined concepts.

Our undergraduate and postgraduate courses apply design-led innovation to social, technological, cultural and ecological issues ranging from applications of artificial intelligence to new thinking around climate change.

Our Approach

The School of Innovation and Technology helps students develop the skills needed to address complex questions relating to fields including healthcare, education, technology and the climate.

We see design as a process built upon the relationships between all of the living and non-living things that form the current planetary ecosystem.
