Industrial Design 3.1

Course No. IND 435B  Credits: 3.0

This course focuses on the semester-long thesis project. Individuals will define the project theme and work with faculty to identify key problems and opportunities. In-depth research will inform concept development, ultimately resulting in a refined solution that considers functional needs, aesthetics and manufacturing. Additionally, individuals are expected to create compelling visual, verbal and written presentations that create context for the project and effectively communicate the validity of the project and outcomes. In order to gain exposure in the design community, individuals will be required to submit their final design to a design competition. Formal reviews will be balanced against weekly one-on-one studio discussion. Prerequisite: IND 336B/C. 3 credits.
