Industry 5.0 is a future in which the traditional drivers of efficiency and productivity give way to the ethics of care and human-centred design.

MA Design for Industry 5.0 foregrounds people and the planet to explore the entrepreneurial opportunity presented by the fourth industrial revolution. It is part of the Product, Ceramic and Industrial Design programme.

This course brings the ethics of care, creativity and entrepreneurial ambition into the fourth industrial revolution and its technological promise.
