The course integrates three important disciplines of product design – Arts, Engineering and Business. You will get to explore design processes at every stage, from idea conceptualisation to realisation, and graduate with quality design folios, including working prototypes. With our studio-based learning approach, you will work in modern design studios and develop prototypes using state-of-the-art model making equipment and facilities.
The Intergenerational Village
To create a platform that aims to bridge the gap between the generations through the art of education. The Intergenerational Village has different clusters, representing a ‘kampong‘ with each cluster taken care of and run by elderly with different talents and interests, passing down knowledge to the next generation, a place where education goes both ways, ‘Learning while Learning’. Technology and the world is ever improving so quickly. Even as new-found knowledge is taught to the next generation, do we simply neglect the precious traditions of our silver generation?
How do we empower the elderly by passing down knowledge of their talents, interests and traditions to the next generation while still allowing them to advance with the world?
Christopher Chong
To me, Design is THE solution to all problems. By thinking of an innovative way to solve a challenge, one is designing for a better tomorrow. Architecture is not merely the design of buildings and placing a roof over one’s head, but, more importantly, a priceless accessory in design problem solving. I am Christopher and I strongly believe that if one sets their heart and mind on something, Nothing Is Impossible!
