Learning is demonstrated through an accumulation of individual, collaborative, realised, speculative and live projects, along with a suite of high profile industry opportunities. 

This ensures that the course remains relevant and able to respond to the needs of the contemporary and future workplace and indeed to the discipline as a whole.
