The practice of industrial design, particularly Australian design, is investigated through a series of case-study presentations. Particular emphasis is placed on issues relating to ethics, intellectual property and contractual administration in new product development. This subject enables the student to deepen their understanding of industrial design through application of knowledge gained in the course to the area of professional practice.
