Brunel's Integrated Product Design MSc degree focuses on the design of innovative products, emphasising the balance between the interest of users, industry, society and the environment. It covers the whole design process, integrating all aspects relevant to product development - technology, management, aesthetics, sustainability, ergonomics, marketing, business and design methods - to produce highly qualified and sought after designers able to cope with the challenges the global economy presents.
Students have access to modern facilities that include a dedicated master’s design studio and extensive prototyping workshops. The practical knowledge students gain is transferable to industry and provides them with a comprehensive skillset for global product and services design research and development.
This integrated product design course is accredited by the Institution of Engineering Designers (IED) and is studied full-time over one year.
At Brunel, they encourage students to make use of their good links with industrial colleagues and undertake an optional industrial placement as part of their dissertation project over the summer. A placement gives students the opportunity to put what they’ve learnt into practice, and to apply it to a real working environment.
Made in Brunel is a unique, student-led initiative that showcases the design talent at its finest. Each year Brunel's students run a series of industry and community events leading up to the Made in Brunel exhibition. This annual showcase is a highlight of the London design calendar and promotes the incredible work that students produce to the creative community, and is a chance to network with key design professionals.
Those students who are interested in turning a product or technology idea into a business after their postgraduate studies, Brunel is in partnership with the Central Research Laboratory (CRL), a design incubator for start-ups. Students will have access to meeting rooms and work space as well as prototyping facilities. A team of in-house professionals will guide and support them at each stage and a number of the previous entrepreneurial students have successfully commercialised their products.
