Why Study IT Product Design?
Are you interested in intelligent products and how they affect people in the future?
The master programme in IT Product Design pushes the envelope of how we can innovate new solutions by engaging the people involved. Intelligent products change the way people work and play. To facilitate sustainable change requires empathy and responsibility from the people who are designing them. It requires skills of critical judgment and an open-minded attitude as well as competencies beyond traditional engineering and computer science. It also requires engagement in multidisciplinary teams to develop successful products and services that benefit the world.
Who are we?
