The clients and their project requirements are to be determined but they may include the creation of design specifications, demo websites, apps, animations, etc. with a view to potential full-production. The aim is to stimulate growth and generate new business for both the clients and partner agency. The University's contribution to the project will involve sixteen undergraduate interaction designers working in smaller teams on these projects. They will be supported by two lecturers with specialisms in interaction and digital design. We anticipate that the partner agency or consultant will work closely with the University's staff and students at discovery, definition, development and delivery phases of each project. Mentoring the student teams and sharing expertise will be an important part of partner agency's contribution. We anticipate four projects being started (a minimum of 2 and up to a maximum of 8 could be undertaken through negotiation). To support this, the partner agency or consultant will be working with 4 teams of 4 students. Each student is normally expected to contribute approximately 150 hrs, or 4 weeks, to the projects. The period for student involvement can be from early March until early May. The University is currently looking for suitable client partners though we would be happy to consider agency suggestions for clients too. We would prefer these suggestions to be new rather than established client partners for the agency. The Creative Fuse website provides more information about the interactive media design student projects. Northumbria University's website provides examples of previous student projects with industry.
