Design and Technology (Product Design)

Course summary

A Level Design and Technology: Product Design is a subject that provides the opportunity to study, propose and bring to life prototype solutions closely linked to the real world of product manufacture in a range of material areas. Set your imagination free – this course will encourage you to initiate design solutions and to develop, test and trial working models and prototypes. Using your imagination, innovation and flair, you will work with concepts and materials, developing an understanding of contemporary design and technological practices and consider the uses and effects of new technologies and modern materials. We offer 16 maximum places to study Design and Technology: Product Design at Bilborough College. Should applications exceed the maximum, we ask students to showcase their work in the form of a GCSE Portfolio, or other relevant work they have completed. We rank all submissions and offer places based on this rank order. We will offer alternative courses, such as Art, or Electronics to students who are unsuccessful. It is not first come first serve, and more information will be emailed in due course.
