Major Courses

The major courses of Industrial Design form the basis of the Eindhoven Industrial Design Engineer. Students develop a knowledge and skill base, which they can use and further develop in projects. Major courses are linked to the Expertise Areas, each with their own perspective on the Design & Research Process.  

The Professional Identity and Vision learning line is one of the major courses of Industrial Design that takes place throughout the Bachelor program. For more information about the learning line through the years and on registration and assessment, check out the information pages.
