Hi!
I wanted to warm up this thread since I have the same problem:
I studied aerospace engineering with a focus on product development and Im currently developing aircraft as a concept design engineer. Meaning I consider user requirements and scenarios to develop a first 3D package model of the aircraft in CATIA, while doing aerodynamic, performance calculations and mass predictions. Since I have the feeling that the likelyhood of designing an aircraft that will actually fly tends to go to zero in my current environment, I thought to change my focus to Industrial Design, since it seems pretty close to my current work and I always wanted to introduce more design styling features in my work (which follows currently only engineering objectives). I thought about joining the Industrial Design Intensive course at UMEA as a first step to learn more about the basics in design and continue from that. Any thoughts?
