Why Massey?
Lamp design and construction project by a current entry-level industrial design student at Massey.
Massey’s Industrial Design school is one of the best in the world.
In 2012, the international Red Dot organisation ranked Massey 12th in the Asia Pacific region for design concept – the only New Zealand or Australian design school to be so recognised.
The Bachelor of Design (Industrial Design) from Massey will give you all you need to be a sought-after employee in this field. Employers recognise that your degree from Massey means you are innovative and have the skills and knowledge to explore new materials and processes, new ways of designing and how to propose new technologies and ideas in a practical way. You’ll also gain an understanding of socio-cultural and environmental needs both here and internationally.
The industrial design programme at Massey gives you the tools to learn how to arrive at design solutions, and then create models and prototypes to a professional level. Your learning is hands-on, studio-project based and you’ll research and design items from tools, jewellery, and kitchenware to sporting goods, agricultural equipment and furniture.
Along with designing a fantastic product and concept, it’s important (especially later on when you enter the job market!) to ensure the public – your audience – will be receptive. This is where a Bachelor of Design (Hons) (Industrial Design) (BDes) from Massey will give you the edge. As well as flexing your creative muscle, a BDes also includes an emphasis on the business tools that you’ll need to be able to effectively produce, market and sell your product. The knowledge and skills you’ll gain are essential for business success.
