Design links science, technology, aesthetics and humanistic values with overarching goal of sustainable growth and competitiveness.
Managers can fine tune business competitiveness with ‘design thinking’ that inherently has metamorphism, empathy, rationalism, empiricism,
and systems thinking in its foundation. Department of Design has been established to emerge as a centre of excellence to promote design
thinking, innovation and creativity.
In the recent past, a lot of emphasis has been placed on innovations, creativity, design and development by the business houses to remain relevant
in the industry. Delhi Technological University (DTU) has a strong tradition of academic excellence, harnessing the power of interdisciplinary
thinking, and blending academia with practice. The Four Year B. Des. Programme has been prepared by experts drawn from top-notch institutes and
universities. The programme has been structured to bring out hidden potential of creativity and innovation of the youth of this country.
The goal of B. Des. Programme is to develop students as innovative designers. The programme provides a strong foundation in design
principles and the inspiration and encouragement to students who want to launch their own business or innovate in the context of
product and processes in the corporate, government and business sectors. The programme structure is directed towards development
of the ability to transform an abstract idea into everyday functional and usable products and services.
The combination of a flexible curriculum, a wide array of learning opportunities and a conducive learning environment is the hallmark
of the Design programme of Department of Design. With an emphasis on seeing the bigger picture from social, technological and business
perspective, our rich curriculum and renowned faculty enable students to solve complex design problems and establish themselves as
leading designers in any environment.
Our invaluable and lifelong alumni network provides a strategic advantage to the students looking to excel in the corporate,
