The E&PDE conference series brings together representatives from education, design practice, industry and government agencies that have an interest in developing new approaches and directions in design education. The conference provides a forum for participants to discuss current educational issues and to identify new approaches, address new challenges and shape new directions for design education.
The conference is organized by the Design Education Special Interest Group (DESIG) of the Design Society and the Institution of Engineering Designers (IED) in partnership with a local planning committee from a host university changing each year.
