Brunel University’s alumni and friends have contributed support to the University in many areas over the last year. Each gift is valuable and helps to deliver education and research of the highest standard.
2002 MBA graduate Peter Ilori also made a generous donation to Brunel’s new Human-Centred Design Institute (HCDI), which conducts research into enhancing the quality of life for those in need.
Human Centred Design is an approach that integrates multidisciplinary expertise towards enhancing human well-being and empowering people. It leads to systems, machines, products, services and processes which are physically, cognitively and emotionally intuitive to use.
The Human Centred Design Institute brings together internationally recognised academics in Ergonomics and Human Factors, Augmented Cognition Systems, Human Centred Design Process, Inclusive Design, Information Architecture, Perception Enhancement Systems, and Design Management. The objectives of the HCDI are as follows:
