The Aim of the Department

Department of Industrial Product Design aims to train designers who make products to meet the requirements of individuals or groups of people and who maintain an appropriate environment for them. While the students improve their creativity and technical knowledge with the design projects, they also gain a theoretical background with supporting courses like research, planning, methodology, ergonomics, design history, materials and production methods and design management. The design projects that the students develop are mainly home appliances, investment goods, mobile products and automotive related products.

Since all these can be achieved within multidisciplinary approach, they require teamwork and are based on scientific and technical knowledge.
