Designing design curricula is a wicked problem, just like any other design problem. Curricula are created to resolve the tensions and meet the aspirations of their time, but they cannot last forever. As the years go by, some of the concerns and issues that once seemed central lose some of their priority and other matters press. There can be no doubt, that current design and technology curricula are going to come under increasing pressure from the requirements of sustainability in a general sense – environmental, economic, and social dilemmas – and in the particular economic drive for a knowledge-based economy. This issue is essentially focussed on these pressures.
