Felicity Bonham
The Master of Design broadened Felicity Bonham’s skillset to enable her people-driven attitude to problem-solving.
When you're looking at solving problems for people, you need to really sit in the problem space, and often that is quite uncomfortable.
Why did you choose to study a Master of Design?
"I've always enjoyed solving problems for people, with people, and that is an element of the degree that appealed.”
What are the Master of Design lecturers and tutors like?
"The environment has been really supportive. The Design Programme has a variety of lecturers, all coming from slightly different aspects of design, who have all been amazing to learn from.”
How did your expectations compare to your experience studying a Master of Design?
"What we're studying is so broad – it's a mindset! It's strategic design, user design, and service design. I thought I would come out a designer of something really specific, but I've come out with far more broader skills.”
What are your future ambitions and plans?
I want to be solving problems with people, for people, that will ultimately impact people. The Master of Design has helped me think more broadly.
