The Master's in Product Design Engineering, delivered jointly with the School of Design at Glasgow School of Art, enhances your skills in creating products with substantial engineering components, meeting user requirements, and tailoring solutions for target markets.
This dynamic program allows you to leverage the combined strengths and expertise of two leading Scottish institutions: the University of Glasgow and Glasgow School of Art. It focuses on studio-based, student-driven learning through design projects. Participants gain access to cutting-edge prototyping and manufacturing facilities in the PDE workshops at both GSA and the University of Glasgow. The curriculum investigates cultural, managerial, perceptual, technical, and psychological aspects, preparing graduates for industry demands while exploring the societal impact of design engineering.
Graduates pursue careers in product R&D, systems design, manufacturing, and engineering design. The program facilitates industry collaborations through live projects, often leading to job prospects. Notable employers of our alumni include Apple, DELL, Dyson, Jaguar Land Rover, TomTom, and Smart.
