Today it’s possible to create works where interdisciplinary multi-dimensional ideas can be modelled via definite algorithms thanks to parametric design tools. This change in the field of design converts the re-setup of the design education obligatory along with it. For this primarily a literature seach is conducted within the scope of the study in order to determine the advantages to be provided to students by parametric design tools, being totally different from the traditional design sense, and it is seen that the advantages in question are basicly clustered under 25 main topics. In this context is the scope and purpose of the study determined as; to re-scruntinize the advantages provided by the parametric design tools determined in the literature and to test these on real projects and to reveal the necessity to integrate computer technologies into this process during the structuring process of the education with real samples. As the methodology of the study 20 projects, developed with computer technologies, are selected. Then, every project is handled one by one and scruntinized whether the advantages provided by parametric design tools are benefited from during the development process of these projects. As a result of all evaluations performed within the scope of the study, it is determined that the advantages provided by parametric design tools are benefited from at different levels during the development process of these projects. In line with all these determinations, it is revealed with real samples that the integration of computer technologies into the design education will significantly contribute to the professional skills of the students.
