Are you a good fit?

Are you wondering if industrial design is right for you and whether you should apply for admission? 

An industrial designer should be open, curious and interested in influencing the environment. Therefore, it is a great advantage to be: 

• creative
• independent and structured
• determined and focused
• with a good dose of drive

Because designing products is an important part of the study, it is an advantage to have a practical sense, a good understanding of space and an interest or aptitude for drawing.
