Industrial designers shape our world, from games and gadgets, to bicycles and boats, to highchairs and helmets. As a student at SCAD, you'll get hands-on experience bringing your ideas to reality, carrying on our great tradition of developing world-class designers. In recent years, our students have worked with some of the most recognizable brands in the world — including Lenova, BMW, AT&T, Clayco, The Coca-Cola Company, Dynacraft, Fisher-Price, Ford Motor Company, Microsoft, and Hewlett-Packard — to invent practical solutions to real-world challenges. At SCAD, you’ll learn to flourish in an industry that is integral to every aspect of product design, from concept to creation. Industrial design students collaborate with their peers in design management, design for sustainability and other programs, often choosing to pursue a double major or minor and expand their professional prowess.
