  5. Innovation Design Engineering • 2 year Dual MA (RCA) & MSc (Imperial) • Global • Multi-disciplinary • Group learning • Non-Linear • Context setting • Permission giving • Output: Producers of Innovation

  6. IDE 34 YEARS 1980 – 2014

  7. i Evolution of the IDE Programme m t Cross-disciplinary 30 years ago Teaching design to engineers Inter-disciplinary 15 years ago Engineering Design Trans-disciplinary 2-3 years ago Multiple disciplines

  8.

  9. DISCIPLINARY DIVERSITY STUDENT BACKGROUNDS 2014: 20 countries and 15 disciplines

  10. Individual Journeys …I want to be a designer whohas not been designed… IDE 2012 Entrance exam candidate

  11. Transformations …on my electrical engineering degree I was the best in my department [Imperial] by a way, and our department was one of the best anywhere. Then I came here and I’m average…at best… SteffanDziewski-Smith 2009

  12. Global & Disciplinary Diversity Challenge

  16. GID: Transnational Education 2 year Dual MA/MSc London: RCA & Imperial New York: Pratt Tokyo: Keio http://globalinnovationdesign.org

  17. Future • Continued emergence of new masters programs from the tradition industrial design area: service design, experience design, systems design, Etc. • Thoughts on the post-disciplinarity landscape: • Digital technologies lowering barriers • Blurring traditional disciplinary outputs • Disciplinary specificity fading • Programs identified by design approach rather than outputs. • On the horizon: Hybrid education-incubation models
