Endüstriyel Tasarım

For Endüstriyel Tasarım, tuition comes to 99,000 TRY per year.

Industrial design focuses on the design of mass-produced products, addressing the functional, aesthetic, ergonomic, and manufacturing considerations that shape everyday objects. Coursework typically includes design studios, sketching and visualization, materials and manufacturing processes, ergonomics, model making, and computer-aided design tools, along with courses on design history and user-centered design methods. Students work through iterative design processes, developing concepts from initial sketches through prototypes and refined product proposals, often in response to briefs addressing real user needs and manufacturing constraints. Studio-based, project-driven learning is central to the field, with critique and presentation skills developed alongside technical design ability. Graduates pursue careers as product designers, design consultants, and design researchers. This program is offered by Istanbul Technical University in İstanbul, Turkey, and is taught in English over a duration of 4 years. Istanbul Technical University's industrial design program benefits from the university's broader engineering and technical environment, giving students exposure to manufacturing processes and materials science alongside design coursework. English-medium instruction supports engagement with international design literature, competitions, and collaboration with global design and manufacturing firms. The İstanbul location connects students to Turkey's manufacturing and consumer goods industries, along with a growing design and creative sector based in the city. Over the 4-year curriculum, students typically progress through design studios of increasing complexity, supported by technical and theoretical coursework, culminating in a final design project reflecting their developed design and production skills.
