Proposal for Industrial Design at WPI B21
PublicDownloadable Content
open in viewerThis proposal lays the framework for an Industrial Design (ID) program at WPI. This was achieved by gauging student interest in ID at WPI, researching several universities in the U.S, Japan, Taiwan, Italy, and UK at the graduate and undergraduate level, interviewing current Industrial Design professors at those universities, and tabulating their infrastructure, courses, and extracurriculars for ID. Based on our findings, our group put together a series of recommendations for successful integration of ID at WPI. Firstly, we have listed the courses that would be great additions for the ID curriculum. We suggest introducing new infrastructure resources and centralizing makerspaces integral to Industrial Design.
