Programme structure
1 year
The first year foundational courses offer an intellectual framework within which students can begin to establish a coherent relationship between theory and practice. Course specific projects are designed to expose students to different roles, contexts and approaches in relation to design and technology.

2 year
In the second year, students are expected to become progressively independent and will learn not only the practical application of different types of interaction design methods, but also how design impacts people, environments, businesses and organisations. The courses offered in the second year aim to give the students a deeper understanding of how to approach problem solving through design.
3 year
During the third year emphasis is placed exploring different design approaches, contexts and roles in relation to emerging technologies. Students will also have the ability to work closely with students across different majors within Harbour.Space and gain a deeper understanding of the correlation between design and technology. Lectures and courses in the third year will prepare the students for a practical career in design.

Irene Pereyra
Co-Founder of Anton & Irene
Back in 2008, Irene founded the User Experience and Strategy department at Fantasy Interactive in New York, which recently she left in order to start up her own design studio.
Irene is extremely passionate about design and believes that great design is practical and human-centred at its core, and starts with breaking things down to its simplest form, the straightest line from A to B. Design can always be better, and rocking the boat is always the right thing to do.
