一、专业概况
The Master of Industrial Design program explores design as a vehicle for addressing social, cultural, environmental and other concerns, recognizing that design is not simply a professional service, but rather a way of connecting individual interests and values with a social framework. The program endorses the notion that the most valuable design opportunities today are those promoting the preservation of our environment and a better understanding of human behavior.Projects during the first year help enhance and expand individual industrial design methodologies, both through direct practice and discussions regarding case studies and product history. This helps to define personal value systems, working methodologies and the means of effectively engaging audiences in dialogue. The study of history and theory is also fundamental to the program and series of seminars on relevant contemporary issues encourages dialogue among students as they develop their own perspectives on design.
工业设计硕士课程探索设计作为解决社会、文化、环境和其他问题的工具，认识到设计不仅仅是一种专业服务，而是将个人兴趣和价值观与社会框架联系起来的一种方式。该课程赞同这样的观点，即今天最有价值的设计机会是那些促进保护我们的环境和更好地理解人类行为的设计机会。第一年的项目通过直接实践和关于案例研究和产品历史的讨论来帮助增强和扩展个体工业设计方法。这有助于界定个人价值体系，工作方法和有效吸引观众进行对话的手段。历史和理论的研究也是该课程的基础，有关当代问题的一系列研讨会鼓励学生在对设计发展自己的观点时进行对话。

三、学习环境
Many of the approximately 20 graduate students in the MID program come from backgrounds beyond ID, including architecture, engineering, fine arts, graphic design, anthropology, marketing and more. But they share an interest in critical thinking and making, along with the curiosity and drive to pursue graduate-level research and production. Graduate students work closely with an accomplished team of faculty members who specialize in various areas of professional practice and show unparalleled dedication to teaching, mentoring and engaging students in real-world problem solving.D candidates work in the department's well equipped, six-floor building, sharing studio, shop and gallery spaces with approximately 210 undergraduate ID majors. Graduate students are expected to demonstrate a high level of independence, motivation and competence in developing the physical and ideological aspects of their work.
