Industrial design is a creative professional field that contributes to our country’s development. It generates new concepts for industrially manufactured products to address the relationship between form and function, as well as to optimize their use, operation, production, sustainability, sales, and distribution. It emerged as a response to the “dehumanization” of products that resulted from the Industrial Revolution. It incorporates aesthetic, ergonomic, and technical qualities into products with the goal of improving people’s quality of life and the competitiveness of our country’s businesses. The Industrial Design Specialization at PUCP trains well-rounded industrial designers using a methodology that involves defining and developing the product through the prototype phase. As a graduate of this Specialization, you will be able to conduct research to solve various problems within the field of mass production across all its branches.
