Core Elements: Empathy, Innovation, Technology

In this tech-driven world, human capabilities will be augmented by computational systems for thinking, robotic systems for creating, and a digital nervous system connecting us globally. In Society 5.0, humans will experience expanded possibilities with driverless cars and robots, creating a world free from poverty, illiteracy, and ill health.

  • Human and Robot Collaboration: Humans excel in awareness, perception, and decision-making, while robots handle repetitive tasks with precision and accuracy.
  • Future of Design: With growth in sectors like manufacturing, smart applications, tech fashion, and retail, design will revolutionise consumer behaviour and industry practices.
  • Human-Only Traits: Creativity and empathy, traits that cannot be digitized or automated, will become increasingly valuable, with innovation driven primarily by empathy.

At the UPES School of Design, creativity and technology go hand-in-hand. We support technology-enabled learning with state-of-the-art infrastructure:

  • AR/VR Lab
  • Film and Media Lab
  • Mac Lab
  • 3D-printing and laser-cutting facilities
