Product Design Christmas Showcase, 11 December
On Wednesday, 11 December, Product Design students will host a Christmas Showcase in Bolton Street where students will demonstrate their creative solutions for a range of complex human problems.
If an Engineer is tasked with making sure an item works, a Product Designer's role is to make sure that the item works for the people it is intended to serve.
