Abstract

This article examines the role of 'Core Design' within the first year studies of the Design and Technology Degree Course. Core is followed by students on both 3 year degree and the 4 year 'with education' course. It reveals the debt owed to a variety of 'Core' studies in design whilst indicating the contemporary requirement for a 'newfoundation' within the degree of Design and Technology at Loughborough. This requirement is highlighted through case studies of students and their work within 'core'.
