The Postgraduate Professional Program in Design at Srishti Manipal is a program specifically designed for graduates or experienced professionals who wish to extend and enhance their design knowledge and practice. The program is driven by an interdisciplinary engagement with theories, methodologies and advanced skills of design thinking and doing.
The engagement is divided into two phases. The first year focuses on understanding and appreciating the design thinking theories, methodologies and advanced skills. And the second year focuses on applying the understanding to drive a reflective inquiry into complex real-world contexts.
The Postgraduate Professional Program in Design thereby offers a unique opportunity to chart a new direction in one’s creative practice towards contributing to knowledge creation and expansion going beyond the traditional skill-based design roles.
