Program Overview


Integrated Design

About the course

A major in Integrated Design equips you with the capacity to apply your imagination to address contemporary issues in an independent and creative way. Design is a speculative discipline, meaning the use of imagination is central to the way different technologies and methods are used to create drawings, models and prototypes. As part of the creative process, you will undertake collaborative work on multidisciplinary projects with a variety of individuals. Practical studies are supported by investigations into design communication and sustainable design, as well as considerations of relevant historical and ethical issues relating to design. You'll benefit from UWA’s investments in cutting-edge model-making and prototyping technologies including laser cutters, 'maker-bots', a well-equipped workshop and a 3D model maker.


Career Pathways

Completing a major solely in Integrated Design (as opposed as part of an Architecture/Integrated Design majors combination), provides a range of employment opportunities including work as a designer, draftsperson, modeller/animator or urban designer (with further study). You could work in design consultancies, architectural and urban design practice, illustration and 3D modelling studios, building or manufacturing companies, computer game development, set design/animation or special effects studios.


Further Study

Students who complete an Architecture major to a high enough level can opt to complete the Master of Architecture by Coursework (MArch). The MArch is accredited by the Architects Boards in each state and territory and recognised by a number of international accreditation bodies.
