Abstract The article emphasizes the need for certain revolutionary changes in design education to suit the needs of sociocultural conditions of the information age. The author, while pointing out design movements during the industrial and information ages, by adopting a theoretical framework, stresses the importance of design education that is holistic, flexible, and well suitable to the rapidly developing information age. According to him, a designer must be able to constantly update with ever-increasing information and understand systemic complexities, to deliver products and services to satisfy changing requirements. The information age is showing dramatic socio-cultural changes with new technologies and globalization. Institutions must come forward with innovative nodes of design education that allow collaboration among different fields and organizations. A well-informed designer can survive disturbances that may arise from increasing socioeconomic complexities and excel with much-needed creativity. Design education must consider and include changing trends in technology and turn human lives, for the design practice to last longer. Critical Evaluation We have indeed witnessed rapid advancements in technologies during the last two decades, which have entirely changed the way we perceive the world. The developments in communication technologies have made us practically realize many past assumptions. In the wake of these changes, designers have the comfort of using technology to enhance their skills and creativity. As a simple example, the introduction of software like Microsoft Word and Typing master has made the job of a document designer much easier. However, an individual or organization needs to be skilled enough to work up to the expectations raised by the technological improvements. In the current globalization period, a designer must be flexible to understand and use, when necessary, the interrelations of various design technologies and processes in simplifying task accomplishment. Convergence is achieved through and is essential for deriving innovations. It enhances the benefits of a product or service for the end-stage users. However, attempts are necessary to further opt for different approaches, while considering these interrelations, to bring in newer advancements. This divergence is also necessary for maintaining standards and identity. The changing global trends have made it compulsory to adopt strategic collaborations among organizations to survive the competition and economic fluctuations. These collaborations are essential for sharing information and services, thereby alleviating unwanted obstacles. This is in turn helpful in creating new products by meeting vast technological and organizational assistance available to designers. However, to realize this design practices should be able to manipulate complexities in favor of task management. A holistic approach of design moments to include various disciplines is necessary to make the best use of available knowledge for the benefit of mankind. For example, computers and other electronic and communicative devices work on certain mathematical and related data applications. Creating virtual environments with these de
