Master Class
The best design studios are in Europe and the US where the 'know-how' is in these studios. At DSK ISD, every year, we organize several Masterclasses and we invite many excellent designers from these epicentres. Masterclasses are a one week intense session under the guidance of these professionals.
These are focused on one "expert subject", for example: How to design sport shoes? How to design a car interior? For the students, it is an amazing opportunity to meet and exchange knowledge and experience with really accomplished Industrial Designers.
DSK ISD saw a lot of reputed companies visiting the campus. They have shared invaluable knowledge about their field with our students.
We had Shoe Design Masterclasses conducted by renowned Footwear Designers like Florence Rohart, ADIDAS (Germany), Thomas Murphy, PUMA (Germany), Kaja Bartel, CAMPER (Spain).

What is the role of Product Designer
In a company, the product designer is the one who re-invents the future by proposing new ideas. In the design process, from the brief of the marketing department, he is in charge of proposing relevant and appealing solutions. By creating new experiences for the user, the Product Designer comes equipped with important expertise for the brand development: he has the power to create future best sellers.
Course Structure
The aim of the three year long Industrial Design course is to master the industrial design process. Students are asked, in the very first year, to choose a specialization from; Product Design, transportation design and Digital Design. In these initial years, they are taught about the design process through training in the areas of graphic expression, creativity techniques, manufacturing techniques as well as consumer practices.
It is mandatory for students to undertake projects during the course. These projects help them understand the design process in detail. Some of these projects are collective, but mostly they are individual, to teach them how to work independently.
