RSA Student Design Awards - shaping the future

 

Design used to be done by designers, and manifest in objects and environments. Now it is increasingly collaborative and directed at complex problems that may have no physical form. This shift has become progressively more evident in the briefs that comprise the RSA’s student design awards scheme, too.

The RSA now wants to take stock of the present state of the scheme in order to assess how it should develop in the future and therefore we are undertaking a review. We want to consult all who have an interest in it: from those in education, to those who judge and sponsor it. We want to know whether the scheme continues to have value and relevance for all our stakeholders and whether it delivers the level of influence, encouragement and support to make it a valid and worthwhile undertaking for the RSA.

This is one of several surveys being distributed as part of our review and this one is aimed specifically at design educators. Your views are key to this review and so your response is very important. Please direct other colleagues to it whom you judge would have an interest in responding but who may not have heard about it.

Please help us by answering the following questions - it should take no more than 10 minutes to complete.
