What it is

Designing experiences with products, services and environments that are useful and usable but also expressive and desirable, building a repertoire of design methods, skills and theory.

What you need

  • No IB page of its own; the national rules apply. A full IB Diploma gives general entry and covers the English 6 and Civics 1b these programmes ask for: no extra subjects.
