Big Life Fix Returns To RTE One
Wednesday 28th February at 9.35pm
MU Design Innovation’s Trevor Vaugh returns to the small screen on RTE’s Big Life Fix. Over the course of a year the show follows the progress of Irish designers, engineers, computer programmers and technology experts. Using the same principles we teach on our BSc Product Design & Innovation and MSc Design Innovation programmes, Trevor works to create user-centred design solutions for real world problems that can be life enhancing and changing.
Produced with the support of Science Foundation Ireland, the teams working in Big Life Fix are based in Dublin’s TOG facility, where they’ve made medical devices and even space satellites. The IDI Award winning show has built a growing audience since first airing in 2020. Design in action, not to be missed.
