3D Design is a rapidly changing field which sits at the very heart of society. 3D design education is often broken up into self contained professional disciplines such as retail interior design, domestic and architectural interior design, urban planning, industrial and product design, digital 3D animation and design, theme park and performance design and the like. Today, 3D design is becoming more organic and ever changing. Spatial or 3D designers are required to have greater flexibility in their practice and a broader knowledge and skill set. Computer aided design and digital communication systems play an increasingly important and unifying role in the practice of 3D design.

ECU's unique Degree of 3D Design recognises, engages with and explores these new skill requirements and changes within 3D/spatial design. In combination with the recommended Graphic Design supporting major, students are guided through a series of highly skill based, fun, and challenging units which lead students to a broad understanding of the underlying disciplines of spatial design across a range of materials, design skills, modeling and building skills, professional outcomes and spatial design applications. This is a truly unique degree within the Australian context and will lead to a multiplicity of options for the highly skilled, knowledge able ECU graduating 3D design student.
