The B. Des Global Design Programme at UID has been crafted through deep research using
innovative approaches for reimagining design education in India. It provides a unique
opportunity for a student to experience global perspectives and tackle design challenges
with an international style of learning. The course features global experiences with world
renowned faculty in an immersive learning model in vibrant Design Capitals of the world.
Our vision is to provide students with a learning experience that is unparalleled, nurturing
them to be design leaders and creative catalysts who deliver positive social, environmental,
economic and cultural change.
The Programme is nested in the United World Institute of Design [UID] but functions
without geographical boundaries, with curated educational experiences in four leading
international Centre of design and innovation in India, Europe, UK and Australia. Collectively
offering students a unique educational mix characterized by multidisciplinary intakes, shared
values, complementary approaches and distinct expertise. The vision of UID’s Global Design
Programme is to provide an international education environment that is unique and
unparalleled in this part of the world, bringing together international experiences of design,
culture and industry.
The UID based curriculum is a sequential mix of different design experiences where there is
an emphasis on design thinking, problem solving, making and prototyping. The course will
take students through various facets of design disciplines including different global
approaches to design from Communication Design (visual communication), Fashion Design,
Product Design (Interaction Design) and Interior Design, with a focus on interdisciplinary
learning and collaborative design projects.
This course prepares students to explore the futurescape of design by negotiating across
disciplines in an experiential ecosystem. It allows them to be curious and evolve the ability
to query and respond to design challenges both individually and through collaborative

interdisciplinary & global perspectives. It aims to impart competencies that aid opportunity
mapping, strategies to transform design, innovative practices to develop entrepreneurial
ventures, new businesses and start-ups for the creative industry.
The first year is dedicated towards building a strong foundation and introducing the
students to the basics and fundamentals of Design using an interdisciplinary and practice-
based approach. It gradually moves on to relatively complex approaches to develop their
critical thinking skills and their understanding of design and elements around them.
As the course progresses the students undergo a global learning experience in their second
year, that focuses on innovation and design. They are taken through increasing degrees of
complexities of design practice and understanding. They understand and connect to larger
issues of society and culture, semiotics and aesthetics, environment and ethnography,
innovation and socially responsive design.
In the third year the students choose a discipline or pathway of their choice with elective
options that are interdisciplinary. The students undertake a global experience where they
learn advanced pathway-based skills to inculcate best practices and experience an
international classroom. The students further develop their skills in their chosen pathways
with a choice of electives culminating in the interdisciplinary design lab. During the fourth-
year students undertake a highly advanced research-based experience abroad at a leading
university internationally. Then they undertake their major project and have the final
showcase of the overall disciplinary and interdisciplinary learning process through the
Bachelors of Design Global programme.
Mentors consisting of accomplished practitioners from their respective fields are invited to
conduct master classes to provide insights of a different degree altogether. Also, there are
workshops and interdisciplinary open electives planned for short durations to promote
larger cross disciplinary interaction and learning. Other activities like site and studio visits,
field trips and attending design seminars and conferences are planned for the students.
Karnavati University | B Design - Global Design | Course Descriptors | UID | 2020 – 24 | Page 2 of 205
The teaching will be experiential and practice based, through a combined process of lecture,
demonstration, assignment, class presentation, feedback and group discussions. This will be
accompanied when and as required by field visits, case study collection, screenings, master
classes, exhibitions etc.
B Des (Global) student has a distinct advantage to experience and interact with
international faculty, professional environments, studio based collaborative and experiential
learning in a global, multicultural classroom to imbibe best practices in design education
that the world has to offer. This course provides students with a vital global edge in
advancing their careers goals over their peers in the design industry in the fields of visual
communication, product design, fashion design and interior design and interdisciplinary
practices such as design for the future, sustainability and innovation, user experience design
and strategic design.
● Experiential learning abroad in Italy, Australia and United Kingdom with certification
of participation from all universities.
● Global exposure, international studio visits and live projects in four countries.
● Interdisciplinary Design Labs with a focus on Design Innovation and Design for the
future.
● Best Global practices in interdisciplinary Design Education in multicultural
classrooms.
This program has meticulously been planned to suit the learner’s receptive conscious.
The modules have been subjugated such that the output has been segregated in three
modes:
Lecture:
Karnavati University | B Design - Global Design | Course Descriptors | UID | 2020 – 24 | Page 3 of 205
This comprises of a method where theory plays a substantial role and is delivered
through verbal, aural and visual presentations which is intended to present information
to the audience with intent to make them aware regarding a particular topic or subject.
● Tutorial:
This methodology of teaching requires assignment-based learning where the sessions are
more interactive, which encourages the learners to enhance their group-based learning
methods concurring on aspects like teamwork, leadership, opinion sharing, empathy,
peer observation and learning through it. It is considered amongst the best methods of
learning and expression.
● Practical:
This method involves tactile experience of working with various materials, tools,
techniques and methods. This involves working outside of the classroom space; it could
be material laboratory, industry visits, field trips, or any other educational excursions
with regular interaction with the environment and different entities.
Considering the course requisites, therefore the dominating timeline of the course has
been put under more emphasis on the practical and tutorial aspects of learning. Theory is
considered; however, it goes concurrently. The courses like communication skills and
inputs in liberal arts play their role.

ADMISSION TO PROGRAM
Design learning is based on experiencing and exploring, hands on and minds on. Therefore,
the quantification of contact hours learning experience in design is based on time factor.
CREDIT SYSTEM:
Credits: Credit is a unit that quantifies the learning undergone by a student in a specific
course, the weightages are assigned to the courses based on the following general pattern
Karnavati University | B Design - Global Design | Course Descriptors | UID | 2020 – 24 | Page 8 of 205
Lecture: It is the time utilised during direct delivery of information and theories related to a
subject by the course faculty through oral and audio-visual presentation. Considering the
learning in faculty student contact during a Lecture, 1 hour/week of lecture time amounts
for one credit during a course.
Tutorial: During tutorial sessions knowledge is imparted, regarding the application and
handling of tools and equipment, through methods of demonstrations and explorations.
During tutorials a student spends time in learning through demonstrations by a tutor, and
also spends time in learning by exploring and execution in workshops and labs. Considering
the learning time spread over contact hours and self-learning, 2 hours/week of tutorial
amounts to one Credit during a course.
Practical: Interactive sessions during a course where a faculty imparts knowledge through
inputs, reflections and feedback during application-oriented learning of concepts and ideas
in a studio. During a Practical session a student spends time in learning through application
and learning also happens in time spent during interactive sessions with the course faculty in
the studio. Considering the learning time spread over contact hours and self-learning, 2
hours/week of practical amounts to one Credit during a course.
● Course Credits (CC): Number of credits in a course represents the amount of learning
undergone by a student during a course, under the categories of lectures, tutorials and
practical.
Course Credit weight age of a course can be calculated by adding up the number of
credits under lectures, tutorials and practical categories in a course.
● Annual Credits (AC): The sum total of all the Course Credits in a year provides with the
total number of annual Credits. Each year must contain a minimum of 48 Credits.

Assessment, where continuous Course assessment holds 50% weight-age and end year
assessment holds 50 % weight-age in the final annual results.
Karnavati University | B Design - Global Design | Course Descriptors | UID | 2020 – 24 | Page 13 of 205
Students will be evaluated out of 100 marks for each course, wherein CCA will carry 50 marks
and ESA will carry 50 marks for each course.
Theory
Evaluation of learning in a year occurs during Continuous Course Assessment and End Annual
Assessment, where continuous Course assessment holds 20% weight-age and end Annual
assessment examination holds 80 % weight-age in the final Annual results.
Students will be evaluated out of 100 marks for each course, wherein CCA will carry 20 marks
and ESA (examination) will carry 80 marks for each course.
CCA is the assessment done during and at the end of each course by respective course
faculty during a year.
Course Marking:
Course Marks are the marks obtained by a student out of 50 marks for Practical and out of
20 marks for Theory.
Both Practical and Theory courses are evaluated by respective course faculty using Course
Marking for Continuous Course Assessment.
Instruments of Evaluation:
Task based assignments (Drawing sheets/ Models/ Soft copies/ written reports/photo and
video graphic documentation etc.
Karnavati University | B Design - Global Design | Course Descriptors | UID | 2020 – 24 | Page 14 of 205
Evaluation Criteria:
Learning will be assessed under four headings mentioned in the table below.
Practical = A + B + C + D = 50 marks
Theory = A + B + C + D = 20 marks
The Course Faculty should divide 50 marks for practical and 20 marks for theory under four
headings as per its relevant weight-age in a particular course (i.e. A, B, C, D in the above
table). The faculty should assess a student under each heading separately.
CCA Marks for each student will be calculated by the sum total of marks given in each
criterion.
End Annual Assessment is the evaluation of the annual courses at the end of a Year.
75% attendance is a must for a student to take the End Annual Assessment.
● Jury Marks (JM)
EAA for practical courses will be done by a jury panel of internal and external jurors.

SUCCESSFULLY PASSING YEAR
Practical course
Theory course
A Student must earn the required number of credits to successfully pass the program.
That is, if a student successfully completes a course that holds a weightage of 4 credits, the
student is entitled to gain the full 4 credits of the course. If in case a student is unable to
successfully complete a course, the student gains no credits from the course, and the
student needs to repeat the course.
In case the student is not able to score 40 % i.e. 20/8* marks in CCA of Practical/Theory at
the end of the course he needs to repeat the course.
Karnavati University | B Design - Global Design | Course Descriptors | UID | 2020 – 24 | Page 19 of 205
To complete the course, the student is required to resubmit the assignments of the course
to the concerned faculty. If the course was conducted by a visiting faculty then the student
will have to submit the assignments to the internal faculty assigned for the course by the
Head of the Department.
In a repeat course a student will be entitled to get not more than 55% marks in CCA, as the
student has missed out on the collective classroom learning. That means a student repeating
a course can only get a maximum of 22 marks out of 40 in that particular Course. However,
there are no such restrictions of marking on a repeat course during ESA i.e. Jury and Exam.
If a student has failed in CCA or ESA or both in a course, then the student is required to take
ATKT (Allowed to Keep Term) jury or exams to get a ‘complete’ in the course.
A student is allowed to take maximum two ATKT attempts to clear the course.
Students are entitled to apply for rechecking of answer books by paying prescribed fee.
Rechecking in practical Examination etc. is not undertaken. But in the course/subject where
rechecking is permissible the Answer books are checked just to ensure that all questions
attempted by the candidate have been valued, that the marks awarded have been totalled
correctly and the total marks have been correctly carried over the result statement.
A student is required to earn minimum 9 credits out of 26-30 and a minimum of 75%
attendance, to get promoted to the next year. The student is required to earn the remaining
credits by fulfilling the course completion criteria and appearing for ATKT (Allowed to Keep
Term) exams and juries.

Elements & Principles of Design
COURSE AIM
The aim of this course is to understand the role of Elements & Principles of design
through key concepts and their application. These form the invisible alphabet underlying
the language, communication and practice of design, extending across all design fields
with their individual Context, Content & Expression.
COURSE OBJECTIVES
Elements of design(dot, line, shape, forms, colors’, textures) and their translation into
design principles (balance, contrast, proximity, repetition, space ,unity) are basic building
blocks which enable us to design with clarity, emotion and meaning .Elements and
principles will be introduced sequentially followed by how various elements /principles
interact individually and with each other in seemingly infinite permutations and
combinations.

out using black paper. The same to be painted following a color
harmony (Complimentary/Double complementary/ Split
complementary etc…) with poster colors.
Create a color composition (using one specific color harmony) to
show “Imbalance “by modification of the previous composition
(balance one).
Rhythm& Harmony: Create two separate compositions to show
“Rhythm& harmony” by using of shapes created by subtraction,
addition and intersection methods (one each mandatorily), during
shapes exercises. No restriction on dimensions, overlapping or
repetition.
Color the composition (Rhythm one) in negative spaces to show
“Rhythm” (with one color harmony - complimentary/triad etc.).
Gestalt (Group activity): Find examples of gestalt principles from
existing surrounding/s and then simplify and interpret the examples
in black and white or color, as final outcomes.
Composition (Texture & pattern): Get multiple Xerox of the
compositions done in the exercise of lines. Cut stripes of .5" inch
from the Xeroxes and then stick them together in different
orientation to create 2 different variations. Create a pattern by
repeating the strips. For one of the selected patterns student needs
to create a color variation by tracing and painting the variation
without outlines. Select any two basic shapes and create a
composition with the pattern (above mentioned) cutouts.
Two dimensional compositions: Select, choose, zoom and trace part
of a picture/photograph. Understand and reorganize the space
division of the frame. Define the positive and negative space in the
composition. Recreate the composition. Extract the colors from the
frame and create harmony out of that. Color the composition with a
specific color harmony (and hue values).
Three-dimensional composition :( Group activity- any number)
Students have to come up with a composition in a given cubic space.
Karnavati University | B Design - Global Design | Course Descriptors | UID | 2020 – 24 | Page 39 of 205
The composition should be made using one of the ten mentioned
words below as theme: joyous, strong, playful, energetic, protected,
scared, free, lonely, peaceful, conflict.

Graduation Project
COURSE AIM
The Graduation Project aims to let students develop a substantial project that
demonstrates their intellectual, technical and creative abilities.
COURSE OBJECTIVES
● The graduation project is a semester long course which aims to let students develop
projects that demonstrate their intellectual, technical and creative abilities. It is
designed to ensure specialisations in any of the key areas.
● The course aims to showcase the overall disciplinary and interdisciplinary learning
process of students through the B. Des Global programme.
● Students will be mentored to clearly demonstrate that they have been able to define a
problem clearly, and are able to understand the difference between process and
product, both of which are equally important.
● They understand the importance of the form in which their work is presented.
LEARNING OUTCOMES
● Through a combination of close mentoring and real-life exposure, students will be able
to engage with questioning, problem-finding and problem-solving.
● Students will develop the ability to do independent research and arrive at design-
based solutions.
● They will also be able to generate documentation, final outcomes and presentations
that showcase their design/ research journey which matches up to professional,
ethical, legal, security.
