"Brunel Design students are the most satisfied students in the UK"

Brunel Design students are the most satisfied students in the UK according to the recent National Student Survey, published in The Times Higher Education Supplement, September 2007. Brunel Design is rated 3rd in the UK, The Guardian University Guide 2010.

 

Overview

Brunel's Design degrees are some of the most renowned and respected in Europe and our students and graduates have won many national and international design awards. All our honours programmes build on a broad base of knowledge, skills and industrial experience. We view the realisation of every aspect of a concept as vital to successful design. To enable this, we have an extensive cross-disciplinary lecturing team, including mechanical and electrical engineers, computer and materials scientists, mathematicians, psychologists, and practising designers and graphic artists. It is this cross disciplinary nature that is central in giving our students the knowledge and expertise they require, and distinguishes us from virtually every other design and engineering department in the UK.

 

All our lecturing staff are research or professionally active - sometimes both - which ensures that the content of our courses is constantly up to date and evolving with the commercial worlds of both design and engineering. Our graduates enjoy superb employment prospects and enter careers in a wide spectrum of environments - manufacturing, service and engineering industries, design management and consultancy companies, and many go on to set up their own businesses. Along with the knowledge and skills built during the courses, work placements offer students direct industrial experience of working on 'live' design projects with some of the best companies in the world. In addition many take advantage of exchange programmes that can take them to Europe or the USA.
