Industrial Design Engineering

Combine design with engineering and technology to create the products, services and systems our future needs.

Will you design the consumer products of the future? Products that don’t just look good, but are also geared to the needs of end-users, the production process, packaging requirements and recyclability? In our three-year, English-taught Bachelor’s in Industrial Design Engineering you will learn to combine technology and creativity to design and improve products. Together with fellow students, you will spend time in the work-place designing and making physical and virtual (consumer) products that are practical to use, well-designed and in line with users’ needs and wants. If you want to get a solid foundation in technology and engineering and cover a variety of subjects, from mathematics to graphic design and from ergonomics to marketing, Industrial Design Engineering (IDE) is the right choice for you.

Many industrial design engineers have clear ideas about how something can be improved, and enjoy making something that people around them can actually use. In this Bachelor’s, you learn to translate the end-users' wishes into a product that works well and looks good. You do this by combining a variety of advanced technologies and a purposeful, systematic approach to engineering with firm knowledge and skills in design. You gain expertise in all the necessary disciplines, from mathematics and electrical engineering to design and marketing. This helps you establish a solid foundation for further specialisation in the Master’s in Industrial Design Engineering.

With your knowledge and skills as an industrial design engineer, you are equipped to design smart, working solutions that make life more enjoyable, easier, better and sometimes even completely different.
