Master in Product Design and Development

Study Product Design

The training offering of this Master ranges from the representation of the initial concepts to the technical development of the final product, going through the different phases of the design and engineering processes.

The Master in Product Design is aimed at specializing and updating professionals and postgraduates from different sectors, especially professionals in the field of design and product engineering. All the teachers who collaborate in the Master are professionals who are active experts in industrial design studios or companies.

One of the key points of the success of the Master is the relationship with the companies that collaborate with the course, since they carry out continuous monitoring and assessment of the group of students. This close tutoring by experts enables students to design and develop an innovative project that provides an optimal solution to the briefing initially proposed by the company. In this way, the student acquires the professional skills that will qualify him/her for his/her working environment.

Visits to technology centres and benchmark companies allow for very direct contact with the professional reality of the moment. This proximity to professionals and collaborating companies generates the opportunity for internship agreements that are compatible with the studies.

Some of the companies we have collaborate are: Play, Hewlett Packard, Cosmic, Roca Sanitario, Santa&Cole, Simon, Figueras, Valira, Lamp Lighting, Educa Borras, Laken, El Naturalista, Teck-Rock, Zobele Group, Esportiva Aksa, Pando, IMC Toys, Taurus, Solac, Crevin, Signes, FujiFilm, Cata, Madel, Signes, Pujadas, Total Care, Cestisa, BioSystemes and Vibia.
