Industrial Design Engineering (AS Degree S0331)
Program Overview
This program prepares students for careers in product and industrial design, as well as fabrication and manufacturing. Students develop skills in design, prototyping, and fabrication through required coursework and a culminating senior project. The program also includes general education coursework and recommended electives to enhance students' knowledge and skills. Students should consult with an advisor to discuss transferability of courses for a Bachelor's Degree.
Program Outline
Degree Overview:
This program is designed to prepare students for a career in product and industrial design firms and fabrication and manufacturing companies. Students are introduced to product development from design through prototyping and fabrication for manufacturing. Students are required to develop a portfolio or prototype for each semester level. This culminates in a final "senior project" in the Level Three certificate and AS Degree coursework, which includes a portfolio of two and three-dimensional design, documentation, presentation, and fabrication. Students desiring a Bachelor's Degree should consult with a counselor or educational advisor to discuss the transferability of courses.
