Course Curriculum

The MSc Integrated Product Design (IPD) programme at TU Delft trains students to create innovative and responsible products and product-services that carefully balance the needs of people, organisations, and the environment. The programme provides a strong foundation in both design and engineering, teaching students to master methods, tools, and technologies that allow them to manage and shape product design processes effectively. By combining creativity with technical expertise, students learn to approach design challenges holistically, ensuring that their solutions are not only functional and aesthetically appealing but also socially and environmentally responsible.A key component of the programme is hands-on experimentation and technical prototyping. Students develop the skills to transform their creative ideas into tangible prototypes, testing and refining their concepts in practical settings. This process encourages iterative learning, critical thinking, and innovation, enabling students to gain a deeper understanding of how design decisions impact both users and society. Through these experiences, graduates learn to bridge the gap between abstract concepts and real-world applications.The programme also emphasises the integration of technology and design to develop impactful solutions. Students explore emerging fields such as digital innovation, sustainability principles, and the use of novel materials, giving them the ability to create forward-looking products that meet contemporary challenges. By combining knowledge from multiple disciplines, students are equipped to design solutions that are technically sound, user-focused, and environmentally conscious.Graduates of the MSc Integrated Product Design programme leave prepared to contribute to a wide range of industries, from consumer products and healthcare to sustainable technology and digital services. They are capable of leading design projects that prioritise innovation, responsibility, and societal benefit, making meaningful contributions to both organisations and the communities they serve.
