COURSE DESCRIPTION:
MFG-206 Concepts of Industrial Design is an exploration of 2D and 3D techniques used by industrial
designers to communicate ideas for new products and product designs. Course includes a brief history
of industrial design. Exercises in ideation and conceptualization will be used to familiarize students
with design development philosophy. Use of freehand drawing techniques and drafting skills will be
explained to produce presentations of proposed product concepts. Model making techniques will be
explored to develop 3D communication skills.
2 lecture, 2 lab, 3 credits
Prerequisites: DFT-107 Drafting I
