About the course
The Master of Industrial Design at RISD explores design as a vehicle for addressing social, cultural, environmental and other concerns, recognizing that design connects individual interests and values within a social framework. The program endorses the notion that the most valuable design opportunities today are those promoting the preservation of our environment and a better understanding of human behavior. During the first year of the two-year MID, projects help enhance and expand individual industrial design methodologies, both through direct practice and discussion. This helps to define your personal value system and working methodologies, and how you engage audiences in dialogue. Throughout the curriculum, attention to history, theory and contemporary issues encourages dialogue with your peers as you develop your own perspective on design.
