10 …I want to be a designer who has not been designed… IDE 2012 Entrance exam candidate Individual Journeys

11 …on my electrical engineering degree I was the best in my department [Imperial] by a way, and our department was one of the best anywhere. Then I came here and I’m average…at best… Steffan Dziewski-Smith 2009 Transformation s

12 Global & Disciplinary Diversity Challenge

16 GID: Transnational Education 2 year Dual MA/MSc London: RCA & Imperial New York: Pratt Tokyo: Keio http://globalinnovationdesign.org

17 Continued emergence of new masters programs from the tradition industrial design area: service design, experience design, systems design, Etc. Thoughts on the post-disciplinarity landscape: Digital technologies lowering barriers Blurring traditional disciplinary outputs Disciplinary specificity fading Programs identified by design approach rather than outputs. On the horizon: Hybrid education-incubation models Future
