Data Driven Design

The aim of Design Research module is to help students to gain a broad understanding of design research history and methodologies and equip them with skills and competencies to undertake research in their chosen topic of enquiry. Underpinned by reflective mindset, this module sets out to support students in four key ways: position design research in relation to historical context, identify the key issues and methodologies appropriate for design research, understand ways to evaluate these resources in relation to theory and self, develop and practice applying design research resources in a pilot study.

The aims of this module are to equip students with the necessary academic insights about and be able to reflect critically on organizations (companies) positioning in their competitive environment and assessing companies' preparedness for facing competition.

This module introduces students to the emerging field of data science and equips them with the fundamental knowledge of using data to gain insights and support decision-making. The module demonstrates and provides hands-on experience with cleaning, integrating, exploring, transforming and summarising data sets. It teaches students to form questions and hypotheses from data; to utilise and apply a variety of statistical methods to effectively analyse data in a way that answers those questions or hypotheses; and to create suitable visualisations to communicate their analyses. By the end of the module students will in analysing and presenting data using R and RStudio.

The aim of this module is to give students an opportunity to explore grand challenges facing our global society and to propose imaginative solutions to specific challenges in one or more country.

Students will critically reflect on the United Nations Sustainability Development Goals and think about how 含羞草视频's Creating Better Futures. Together Strategy might contribute to them.

Students will engage with ideas and approaches to possible solutions from their own programme and gain diverse insights from 含羞草视频 London's interdisciplinary ecosystem. This will involve solution-oriented thinking and a balance between criticality and possibility, leading to a deep understanding of grand challenges and imagining creative responses to them.

The aim of this module is to introduce students to the major issues related to users' engagement with digital media. The module examines the evolution of the interactions of audiences with digital media; characteristics of digital media markets; implications of new digital media platforms on the experience of audiences and the associated organisations. Case studies will also be presented.

The aim of this module is to:

• develop awareness of the scope and diversity of business models within the creative industries
• understand the relationships between business model innovation, technological advancement and creative industry evolution.

The aims of this module are to:

• Provide students with an opportunity to be exposed to project-based teamwork in diverse settings (understood in this context as involving a range of multidisciplinary, multicultural and demographic elements in differing configurations), aiming to strengthen their cooperative and collaborative working skills and competence, while raising awareness and appreciation of diversity itself.
• Provide students with hands-on experience of identifying, framing and resolving practice oriented and real-world based challenges and problems, using creativity, critical enquiry and appropriate tools to achieve valuable and relevant solutions.
• Support the development of students' ability to engage in critical enquiry and individual reflection, as well as to apply individual strengths and skills, building on their own educational backgrounds.
• Provide students with opportunities for networking with stakeholders, organisations and corporations, aiming to enhance the competence and skills needed to connect to relevant parties and build up future professional opportunities.

The Service Design Innovation module aims to provide students with an overview of the theoretical aspects of the role of service design in innovation practice. This is based on and driven by a human-centred design approach within service design innovation development and communication. This involves introducing four main areas of design application related to service experience, service systems, service models, and future scenarios. The main design contribution is covered by exploring the role of design in designing interactions, designing for co-experience, designing for co-creation, proposing new behaviours, enabling collaborative services, fostering organizational change, shaping service systems and generating future scenarios.

This overview includes the designers specific roles and perspectives within design projects, understanding how designers can qualify and position themselves when working within interdisciplinary design teams. The module aims to allow students to gain experience in analysis through service design intervention (through critical review of key service innovation literature) in order to understand the specific roles service design can in play in innovation management processes within organizational context, as well as, social and enterprise processes.

The Service Design Strategy module aims to provide students with professional skills for working in service design innovation teams. It aims to allow students to gain experience in managing complex service innovation processes and working successfully within the area of Service Design Strategy.

The aim of this module is to provide the students with an overview of the cloud technology with a special emphasis on cloud applications and the associated challenges.

The aims of this module are to provide a detailed analysis of the evolution and application of digital technologies to sport.

The aims of this module are to give the student the opportunity to study a subject, or research question in depth and to research the issues surrounding the subject or background to the problem.
The module will equip the student with the relevant skills, knowledge and understanding to embark on their individual research project and they will be guided through the three options available to them to complete their dissertation:

• A desk based research project that could be set by an organisation or could be a subject of the student's choice
• A project that involves collection of primary data from within an organisation or based on field research
• A full professional placement within an organisation during which time they will complete a project as part of their role in agreement with the organisation (subject to a suitable placement position being obtained)

Students will achieve a high level of understanding in the subject area and produce a written thesis or project report which will discuss this research in depth and with rigour.
