Applications are open for the MA Materials.Anthropology.Design programme at UCL in London:https://www.ucl.ac.uk/anthropology/studying/ma-materials-anthropology-design The MA includes a full programme in material culture and anthropology, focussing on ways to engage with design, craft-making, and materials innovation. Understanding culture and society can make the difference between success and failure for design, for making, and for materials technologies. Every student undertakes a full taught core course and optional courses, and conducts individual research for a personal dissertation on a subject of their choice. Every student also conducts design anthropology work in a team for an external client. Last year, our teams worked with IDEO London, the Bauhaus Foundation, and the Restart Project. Some of their ethnographic work, videos, interpretations, and artistic installations can be found at the Studio of Material Life site: http://materialife.com. Graduates from our programme progress to a range of culture, design, and materials related careers. Graduates from the last three years are working as user experience design researchers, as designers, as museum curators, as lecturers, and in fashion. Others have won artist residencies, or are undertaking PhD research.
