Industrial Design Engineering Where do all these new gadgets come from? How can you make Olympic skate champions skate at higher speeds? How is it possible that people from all over the world all understand the signs at Schiphol Airport? How can you make cars more environmentally friendly? These are only a few of the many questions that concern industrial design engineering. Creating successful products people love to use! That is our motto. Industrial design engineers design new products. They also improve existing products. In doing so, the wishes of user and producer of the product are taken in consideration. The range of products that industrial design engineers work on is impressive: from hospital beds to blow dryers, from mobile phones to websites and corporate (visual) identities. In short: products that people use in day-to-day life. You will design products for all kinds of people, healthy or handicapped, Dutch or Chinese, cyclist or air traveller. As an industrial design engineer you will design products that people use intensively at work, at home, at school, for transportation, communication or leisure.
