Additional information: Industrial designers provide a link between manufacturers of products and the consumers who buy and use them. Designs are created and models and prototypes are produced for commercial, medical and industrial products. These products cover a wide range of manufactured goods from toys and toasters to furniture and heavy machinery. While some work is carried out on the development of new products, other work is related to updating and improving the design of existing products. Designers work directly for manufacturers or private consultancies, or are self-employed. The course aims to develop a student’s ability to think in strategic terms, make decisions and solve problems by becoming involved in industry collaborative project work.
