This programme synergises and integrates technology with design and business, and works to fulfil the University’s strategic development of product design in supporting Hong Kong’s drive to become the Asian design hub.
The curriculum is developed and implemented through the learning-outcome oriented approach, which ensures that graduates acquire specific abilities and skills.
The programme produces all-round preferred graduates, who are immediately useful to industry but at the same time are able to play important roles in leading local manufacturers to switch from Original Equipment Manufacture (OEM) to Original Design Manufacture (ODM), and then to Original Brand Manufacture (OBM).
