Tomorrow’s health and wellbeing will be driven by those who can apply creative, practical, problem-solving skills to complex problems. Future proof your career.
Take the Design for Health Minor and explore how design can connect healthcare and communities. Learning in a design for health space will give you confidence and skills to tackle any design challenge you might encounter in your career. We work with awesome people, communities and organisations creating spaces, products and toolkits, hosting events and engaging communities.
We are a transdisciplinary design and research studio based at AUT’s school of Art + Design. We use design to empower, delight, and enrich lives in our communities. We are united by our motivation to help people to think differently, be confident to explore possibilities and dream bigger in response to health and wellbeing challenges.
Our research focuses on how the design of products and services may have a positive impact on people’s health and wellbeing. We engage with clinical experts, healthcare professionals as well as researchers from other disciplines, to share and test ideas and develop unique solutions.
Good Health Design facilitates a range of Design for Health projects with both undergraduate and postgraduate students at AUT.
While situated within the School of Art & Design, Good Health Design works with many external partners and organisations. As a Design for Health Minor student, you’ll be able to benefit from the variety of professional relationships the Good Health Design teaching team has with industry partners and contribute to some real world projects in the field of Design for Health.
