Integrated Product Design

A Bachelor Degree or a relevant post-graduate work experience in Design. A portfolio is required.

The MSc Programme in Integrated Product Design approaches the Product Design discipline in a comprehensive and systemic way, with a strong cultural attitude. Within an accelerated social and technical progress, products progressively evolve into complex systems that merge both tangible and intangible aspects. Consequently, the boundaries of the product design discipline expand to integrate different facets, such as the relationship between design and technology and the need for new augmented functions; strategic and market-related actions; a focus on social and environmental issues; and a clear understanding of the processes that concur in the definition of the qualities of products.
