In everyday life, you are surrounded by products. Why do they look the way they do? What user requirements must they meet, what processes lie behind their development, and which technologies play a role? This Master's focuses on exactly that. You will gain deep scientific insights to develop sustainable and innovative products that enrich people’s lives. Additionally, you will learn to oversee and improve the entire development process. You can specialise in designing with new technologies, the relationship between humans and technology, or the organisation of product development.

The demand for industrial designers is high and continues to grow, as innovation and intelligent design play an important role in our society. After graduation, your job prospects will be excellent – whether you want to become a specialist in developing a specific type of product, a manager overseeing the entire production process, or a researcher applying the latest scientific insights in product design.
