Rethinking Design



Rethinking Design Education

Industry 4.0 has created the need for Design Education 2.0. Disruption in the way design has been taught in India for the last 50 years needs to be revisited to make it contemporary, relevant, and sustainable. Design Education which evolved in India, based on its rich ‘Craft’ sensibilities has to be transformed into ‘Technology’ enabled. At mitsd we believe this would emerge as the next best practice for sustainable design education in the near future.
