Diversity of Design Education in China

Pages 130-136 | Published online: 17 Jan 2017
 

Abstract

Design education is fundamental not only for the socio-economic and cultural development, but also for the enhancement of creativity in the country. With its particular philosophy and function, design education in China has been influenced by China's society and culture. An in-depth study of design education, under the context of "globalisation" and of the diversity of design education in China will help us to more accurately anticipate its future development. Taking as a case in point the practise of Shandong University of Art and Design, this article aims to trace the historical interaction between education and economic development for the purpose of illustrating an educational vision, that seeks to connect faculty set up with industry development and professional training with market needs.
