Description: The Certificate of Completion (CCL) in Industrial Design Technology: Design Specialist provides foundational industrial design skills. The foundational skills gained will allow employment in a variety of hi-tech product development and medical device, consumer product, aerospace, and automotive manufacturing companies. The program includes courses designed to provide students with a working knowledge in the field of product design, product development and rapid part manufacturing. The core specialty of the program is hands-on experience with solid design. There is also an Associate in Applied Science (AAS) in Industrial Design available.

Learning Outcomes
1. Analyze design ideas, considering aesthetics, safety, function, usability, serviceability, cost, production methods, and market demand. (MPT101, MPT110, MPT111, MPT113, MPT151, MPT152, MPT250, MPT251, MPT298AA) 2. Realize basic design ideas through the development of concept models, considering form, fit, and function. (MPT151, MPT250, MPT251, MPT255) 3. Develop a basic digital design to produce a proof of concept with 3D printed models. (MPT151, MPT250, MPT251, MPT255) 4.
