The MA in Service Design equips students with the expertise to craft innovative and user-centric experiences. Rooted in the principles of people, products, partners, and processes, this course encourages a socially driven approach to design, aimed at improving user interactions across various contexts.

You will develop research methodologies through user research, journey mapping, and service blueprints, fostering an inventive and stakeholder-engaged approach to hypothesis testing and solution implementation.

It integrates a design mindset with collaborative, innovative, and pragmatic methods to navigate and influence change. Our project-based learning approach involves collaborations with commercial, public, and social organisations, guiding students through deep research, concept generation, prototyping and user testing.
