The Bachelor of Design (Industrial Design)/Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) program at Queensland University of Technology is a dual degree program that provides students with a comprehensive education in both industrial design and engineering.
This program aims to equip students with the skills and knowledge they need to design, develop, and manufacture products that combine functionality with aesthetics. Students learn how to create designs that are user-friendly, sustainable, and commercially viable.
The engineering component of the program offers a wide range of specializations, including civil, electrical, mechanical, and software engineering. This allows students to gain a deep understanding of the scientific and technical aspects of product development.
Throughout the program, students engage in hands-on projects to apply their learning and develop practical skills. They also have the opportunity to work on real-world projects through internships and industry partnerships.
On completion of the program, graduates are prepared for careers in a variety of sectors, such as product design, automotive design, technology development, and production engineering. They may work as industrial designers, product developers, design engineers, or project managers.
