Master's Program in Yacht Design - IED Turin

The Master in Yacht Design teaches key skills from concept to production validation. The growing nautical sector boosts the importance of Made in Italy design, while a new classic automotive-influenced approach brings innovative standards. Piemonte, near Liguria’s coast and home to transport companies, is an ideal location linking yacht and automotive industries.

The course has levels, starting with basic nautical knowledge, including cultural and techniques. Students gain yacht design skills, study the market and boat types, learn about materials, technologies, and production methods through hands-on shipyard experience, and gain technical drawing and design skills. Offered at Turin and Venice campuses, the program reflects automotive and maritime traditions. It ends with a Thesis Project based on a boatyard or design studio brief.

Admission to the Master's is open to graduates in Architecture, Engineering, and Design (Transportation, Interior, Product), as well as to professionals in the sector seeking to apply their skills in this specific area.
