About the Diploma

What makes good design? An innovation that is equal parts attractive, practical and functional, and is able to differentiate itself from its competitors. Learn how popular products in the market become success stories, and design your very own smart innovation.

The Diploma in Product Design & Innovation (PDI) integrates three important disciplines of product design – Arts, Engineering and Business. You will get to explore design processes at every stage, from idea conceptualisation to realisation, and graduate with quality design folios, including working prototypes. With our studio-based learning approach, you will work in modern design studios and develop prototypes using state-of-the-art model making equipment and facilities.

In your first year, you will be introduced to fundamental design principles as well as engineering concepts that are applied to the design process. You will be taught to use computer-aided design software. In your second year, apply what you have learnt to actual product design projects. You will then progress to more advanced product innovation and development projects in your final year when you learn about the business management aspects of product development. You will also go on a three-month internship at leading companies.

Under our partnership with Motorola Solutions, PDI students will also get to design products that enhance public safety. Top designs will be given awards by Motorola.

Careers

PDI graduates can look forward to good employment prospects in international design companies such as Motorola Solutions, which have Singapore offices, as well as local enterprises such as We Are Perspective, Singapore Mint and ST Kinetics that design and manufacture products or provide product design and development services.

You will also be able to explore creative professions in furniture design, packaging design and product merchandising. If you’ve got a natural flair for design, you can even start your own design consultancy or design-and-manufacture firm after gaining a few years of experience.
