On Campus

This programme is ideal for students who love to design and develop new products and/or improve existing ones. Students will use creative methods to design, visualise, develop, and test new products both virtually and physically. The programme highlights the importance of successful product realisation by having a close collaboration with well-known companies in various courses.

This master's programme has two tracks, Digitalization and Industrial Design. Students need to choose one of the two tracks. The integration of the products and their manufacturing is emphasised in the programme as well as the sustainability of the products.

Digitalization track

In the first track, Digital tools and automation in product development are in focus. Students choosing the digitalisation track will take courses oriented towards mechanical engineering with emphasis on utilizing digital tools to verify designs, re-design, automate and optimize products. The digitalization takes a wide-angle approach by including all stages of product development with special attention to design for producibility and addressing challenges tied to sustainability. The track involves hands-on, project-based courses in close collaboration with our industrial partners which are directly involved in the education through guest lectures, supervision, hosting study visits and assessment boards.

Industrial Design track

The second track focus on the consumer experience, product aesthetics and product and user interaction. The track focuses on lab-work, hands-on work with different materials, tools, and digital tools to generate design concepts. The industrial design students have access to the design studio where each student has their own workstation with a PC and digital drawing board.

Common for both tracks

Our industrial partners provide the students with real-life projects and challenges ensuring that the education has real life relevance. The students have free access to our LABs where they are encouraged to create prototypes and test their ideas. Both tracks include co-reading with the Production Engineering and Management programme to ensure that the students get the perspective of production into the product development work in an integrated manner.
