upper
level courses in design(ulcd)
In our School we understand design as signifying the human activity that resolves the configuration of daily life environments and surroundings, and that has as its objective the planning or designing of the objects that surround us in our activities, in regards to their production, their distribution and their consumption. It is, therefore, an activity or discipline that is inseparable from human activity, and necessary and essential to modern and advanced societies. From the perspective of the Upper Level Courses in Design (ULCD) that are offered in our School, the goal is to provide comprehensive training of professionals in the different areas of design (Interior Design, Product Design, Fashion Design, and Graphic Design), professionals who develop creative, technological, pedagogical and research capabilities, applied to industrial and aesthetic innovation, and who are able to contribute to resolving the problems of design, and of improving the quality of production in all of these areas. The Upper Level Courses in Design therefore have as a specific objective:
ULD Academic Organisation The Upper Level Courses in Design are organised over a period of three academic year (with a total academic load of 270 credits) plus a Final Course Project (FCP), with a total academic load of 3 credits (each credit is the equivalent of approximately 10 class hours). The School of Art and College of Design organises the training curriculum into different fields or areas of Specialisation:
The subjects that are taught during the three academic course years correspond to the following Areas of Concentration:
Final Course Project (FCP) The FCP consists in the conception and correct development of an original design project by the student, which has to have been produced within a professional atmosphere of specific design production, and therefore with the intervention of companies and institutions outside the School itself. The following are considered to be basic prescriptive aspects of the FCP:
b. Plans, models and/or prototypes prepared such as, depending on the case, the conditions and instructions for use and consumption. c. Analysis of the productive and economic feasibility carried out from criteria of formal innovation, business administration and marketing. d. Analytic, methodological written paper explaining the reasoning behind the project, which is to include a complete documental and graphic report of the different stages of development. Degree Once the student has successfully completed the three academic year courses of the specialisation area and the FCP, he/she will be granted the Higher Degree in Design for this area of specialisation, which shall be equivalent, to all effects and purposes, to a University Diploma. The Higher Degree in Design shall be considered official and valid throughout the whole of the Spanish territory. These studies are described in Royal Decree 2483/1994 of 23 December in BOE number 32 of Tuesday 7 February 1995. These studies are described in accordance to the legislation included
in Royal Decree 1486/1999 of 24 of September (BOE number 239 of Wednesday
6 of October of 1999), and in Decree 133/2001 of 26 July (DOGV 4.058
