In a global society of increasing complexity, designers are called upon to create meaning by leveraging technology in strategic ways. The Design and Technology programs explore the design implications of emerging technology and the evolving connections between technology, design, and the human experience. From the day a student enters the department, the process of responding to these implications through design is at the core of his or her investigation. Design is seen as serving more than a visual function: it is a mechanism for producing culture, for developing communities, shaping knowledge organization, creating entrepreneurial structures, and triggering social consciousness.
