The Innovation Design Engineering (IDE) MA/MSc at the RCA, run jointly with Imperial College London, is a two-year, 360-credit double Master’s programme combining design, engineering, science and enterprise. IDE is about transformation of disciplines, of understanding future challenges, and of you as a creative leader. You will design through experimentation and collaboration, prototyping and validating ideas, working in transdisciplinary teams across industry and academia. The programme nurtures a supportive, empathic culture ''the IDE family'' while preparing you to tackle complex societal and environmental problems. Through rigorous technical training and conceptual development, you will emerge as a curious, analytical and open-minded innovator. Graduates from IDE have worked on everything from biomaterials to medical devices, inclusive interaction to sustainable systems. Programme structure: Phase 1 (Terms 1 & 2) In phase 1, you take IDE Fundamentals Transdisciplinary Practices Cyber Physical Systems Regenerative Materials Structures & Aesthetics and Impact. These units each involve a design-led project (sometimes with set briefs, sometimes self-initiated), where you generate imaginative ideas, build and test prototypes, simulate, and get feedback from expert stakeholders like engineers, designers and potential users. Phase 2 (Terms 3 & 4) In phase 2, you take Sustainable Systems and Agency & Implementation. This phase focuses on professional consolidation, developing your individual and team identity, engaging with organisations, planning your own projects, and defining your pathway for the next phase. Phase 3 (Terms 5 & 6) In phase 3, you lead significant projects through team-based work, individual projects, and an elective module. You build leadership, technical and professional agency, and carve out a specialism aligned with your emerging interests under the guidance of tutors.
