The innovative people-oriented design of meaningful products is central to the Industrial Design Engineering programme (IDE). The form, function and experience of current and new technologies are processed into innovative applications that people use in their daily work, learning, care, play and entertainment. The graduate of the Bachelor of IDE can demonstrate that he/she has achieved the following three learning outcomes atprogramme level: 

* Product can be a broad definition that also includes a machine, service, system, environment, experience, interaction, or business. 

The graduate of the Bachelor of IDE can demonstrate that he/she has achieved the following three learning outcomes at programme level: 

1.       The IDE engineer researches and identifies the characteristics, desires, wishes and requirements of present and future users while designing, taking into account the physical, social and societal environment, and the state of the art. He/she translates the outcomes into a vision on product use. This forms the basis for a product* idea. 

2.       The IDE engineer translates the idea for a product* into visualized and materialized concepts. He/she specifies features and requirements in an iterative fashion with the aid of creative and other methods, techniques and instruments. 
 

3.       The IDE engineer translates visual concepts into functioning prototypes that can be produced, have a substantiated business case and connect to the experience of different users. He/she designs and improves user-product interaction in an iterative fashion by investigating the developed prototypes with the aid of user research and/or creative and other methods, techniques and instruments.
