Postgraduate Certificate in Sustainable Design

Sustainable design is an approach to design and production that aims to reduce the environmental impact of the products, services and systems that are created. It focuses on the idea that products, services and systems should be designed to be more energy efficient, less toxic, more durable and reusable or recyclable at the end of their useful life. In short, sustainable design seeks to find innovative and responsible solutions that meet the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet theirs.

Importance of sustainable design today

The importance of sustainable design today lies in the growing global interest and concern about the environment and sustainability. Mass production and rampant consumerism have had a negative impact on the environment and our quality of life. People are increasingly aware of the consequences of their consumption, and governments and companies are implementing policies and strategies to encourage sustainability and waste reduction. Through sustainable design, it is possible to create products and services that are more efficient in the use of resources, generate less waste and have less environmental impact.

This online academic program seeks to provide students with comprehensive training in sustainable design. Students will learn the key concepts related to sustainable design, as well as the importance of considering environmental impact in industrial design and production. They will also gain specific knowledge about sustainable materials and their application in the design of packaging and other products. Finally, the social impact of sustainable design will be analyzed and success stories will be presented to inspire students in their own application of sustainable design. Learning will take place through theoretical and practical modules, and student discussion and participation will be encouraged. At the end of the Postgraduate Certificate, students will be ready to apply their knowledge in the professional and work context.
