I'm a Product Designer (Industrial Designer) currently working towards a PhD in Product Design Management in the Department of Design Manufacture and Engineering Management (DMEM) at the University of Strathclyde.
My research aims to save Product Design / Industrial Design agencies time & money by building tools to quickly and accurately estimate the time needed to complete design projects from just the project brief. This is done through modelling designers' tacit knowledge and perceptions of design projects and developing a data-less resource forecasting method for design projects.
