• enjoy the design process, develop an appreciation of its elegance and power

• develop knowledge, understanding and skills from different disciplines to design and create solutions to problems using the design cycle

• develop an appreciation of the impact of design innovations for life, global society and environments

• appreciate past, present and emerging design within cultural, political, social, historical and environmental contexts
