Overview
The MA in Industrial Design from University of Johannesburg by research will be earned by completing an advanced research project, which culminates in the production and acceptance of a dissertation. The research project may take the form of textual or artefactual research but, regardless of the preferred form of research, a written dissertation is delivered as the final output of the qualification which complies with the generally accepted norms for research at this level.
Selection criteria
- Prospective students may be required to present a portfolio of their own work to an interview panel. A portfolio would be requested if further evidence is required of a students’ readiness to conduct textual or artefactual research.
- In the case of textual research the portfolio would contain examples of written research, and in the case of artefactual research a portfolio with industrial design artefacts would be required.
