ABSTRACT
With Taipei being
nominated for the World Design Capital 2016, an event that emphasizes “design
thinking,” issues, such as identifying Taiwan’s design education
development trends and crucial factors influencing Taiwan’s design industry
development must be addressed for Taiwan’s future design education. This study conducted a pilot study to investigate design department objectives, analyzed
designer abilities required by businesses, and referred to the design
department evaluations. The results showed that for cultural creative design
departments, issues that required most improvements were: (1) Related departments should encourage students to
actively participate in off-campus competitions to enhance the students’
execution, implementation, problem-solving, and communication abilities; and (2) The departments established indul stry-academia cooperation and provided various
opportunities, but insufficient options were provided for teachers and students
to participate in various types of internship. Because Taipei is to face the
challenge of the World Design Capita2016, reviewing and improving design
education become essential and emergent. The results of this study can serve as
a reference for relevant school departments to develop education strategiesrelated
to cultural creative design in Taiwan.
