Abstract

Freshman design courses offer a number of benefits to incoming students and are becoming increasingly popular in universities around the world. At KAIST, an innovative freshman design program has been developed that challenges some of the existing paradigms in design education in general and freshman design education in particular. This paper will discuss the basic format, goals, and philosophy for the freshman design program at KAIST. It will also address the successes, challenges, and future implications for the course.
