Industrial Design

Description

This course will equip you to become a flexible designer, able to apply yourself to many different design roles. Throughout this course the emphasis is on user-centred design issues, aesthetics, ergonomics, interaction design, commercial design, as well as design for industrial manufacture and production. Students will use digital media and computer design visualisation tools throughout the design process.

Strong industry links and an optional work placement will enhance your employment prospects. We strongly encourage students to take a work placement, as it is invaluable in helping to make an informed decision about your future career pathway. Students are supported throughout the placement experience, and are assisted in finding a placement, as well as given advice and techniques on how to perform well at interviews. Past placements have taken place both in the UK and abroad. Placements have included companies such as Jaguar Cars Ltd, Xerox, Aston Martin Lagonda Ltd, Dyson Appliances Ltd and The Gillette Company.
