Bath School of Design
Design students are the professional problem-solvers of the future: creative, inspired, connected, collaborative and responsive.
In this section
Our courses ask you to define and challenge modern problems – and innovate to create effective solutions through brilliant design.
You'll be curious and resourceful. You’ll learn to combine practical, hands-on making with creative thinking to turn your ideas into reality.
Find out more about what we've been up to over the past year in our Bath School of Design 2020 publication.
