Industrial Design Centre - The Course Structure

The Course Structure

The first two semesters in the first year consist of theory courses and learning/instruction oriented projects. The second year is largely spent on design projects.

Because of variation in the undergraduate backgrounds, the courses are kept flexible enough to level out the differences and bring all students on a common footing by the end of the second semester.

The project orientation is fully reflected in the course structure. The simple projects in Visual Communication, Product Design, Animation and Interaction Design are introduced in the 1st semester.

Depending on their interest the students choose elective courses in the 2nd and 3rd semester.

In the last two semesters the students undertake three application oriented projects of varying duration and complexities. They also undertake a special project oriented towards design research.

Famous quotes containing the word structure:

    Agnosticism is a perfectly respectable and tenable philosophical position; it is not dogmatic and makes no pronouncements about the ultimate truths of the universe. It remains open to evidence and persuasion; lacking faith, it nevertheless does not deride faith. Atheism, on the other hand, is as unyielding and dogmatic about religious belief as true believers are about heathens. It tries to use reason to demolish a structure that is not built upon reason.
    Sydney J. Harris (1917–1986)
