Description

The Master or Arts in Transportation Design - work experience, was set up with the idea of providing the kind of training that would turn out to be a winning tool with which to face up to the challenges of the workplace and enable the students to provide the solutions to many of the questions often addressed by Car Manufacturing Companies and Style Centres. Over the course of two years on a full-time basis, this course expects to hone and develop the student's competence in terms of his/her critical approach, analytical and methodological skills providing them with the tools they need to start creating their own innovative concepts.

Highlights

The didactic pathway includes a first year focused on providing the theoretical and design tools required to produce 1:4 scale models that are considered the final goal of the first part of the Master course. This will then be followed by a detailed analysis of the main manual and digital representation techniques, the ergonomics and architectural features of a vehicle, marketing and modeling techniques.

During the second year the students will become involved in what, to all intents and purposes, is a true work environment, simulating the work of a team in a professional design studio equipped with all the most innovative information technology tools. For the 2nd year of the course a Style Centre will commission a project from the Istituto Europeo di Design of Turin for the development of a concept car.
