Industrial designers have a profound effect on the quality of our lives and the economy.
They are involved in a broad range of design - from pencils to planes. Combining art, business and technology, industrial designers give form and function to the thousands of commonplace and not so commonplace objects that we all use. To create these new or improved products, industrial designers utilize a knowledge of the arts, technology, social science, business, and a wide range of problem-solving and communications skills. The Industrial Design baccalaureate program at Wentworth leads to a Bachelor of Science degree in Industrial Design. It is a four-year, educational and cooperative work program in which students are required to spend two semesters working in the field, usually as paid interns.
