Eligibility for both tracks (Industrial Design Engineering
and Innovation Management and Product Development) within the Master's Programme Integrated Product Design requires a relevant Higher Education Diploma of at least 180 ECTS credits, within Mechanical Engineering or equivalent. General requirements include: Mechanical Engineering: Mechanics, Solid Mechanics, Thermodynamics, Electrical Engineering, Machine Elements, Manufacturing Technology, 3D-CAD, Product Development and Engineering Design.
Applicants to the Industrial Design Engineering Track must also have good knowledge in Industrial Design Engineering: Ergonomics, Design Processes, Materials, Sketching, Rapid Prototyping, and Digital 3D-visualisation. English 6/B.
In addition to the above, eligibility for the track Industrial Design Engineering also requires the following knowledge withinbothmechanical engineering and industrial design:
Mechanical engineering: mechanics, solid mechanics, thermodynamics, electrical engineering, machine elements, manufacturing technology, 3D-CAD, product development and engineering design.
Industrial design: ergonomics, the design process, material selection, sketching, design, rapid prototyping and digital 3D visualisation.
The selection process is based on the following criteria: Study results (grades, relevant subjects and English), motivation for studies (motivation letter, references, courses and relevant work experience) and prior education.
Prior education is evaluated based on the quality and suitability of the subjects that are relevant for the program applied for. Prior education is evaluated based on the Swedish Higher Education Authority´s standards for Swedish higher education institutions. For international higher education institutions, university rankings are used. The merit rating is carried out on a scale of 1-75.
The selection is also based on the design portfolio for - track Industrial Design..
