This course aims to deepen students' knowledge of design methodology and its role in industrial product development processes.
In the course, students will study and discuss how design methodology can achieve efficiency and results of design activities within product development companies, both theoretically but also practically. The course also provides training in analysing previous and planning future design projects at the same time as the students' ability to orally and in writing communicate and discuss experiences and results are further developed.
