heh d-sin,
I’m curretnly at Coventry studying Industrial Product Design which is actually an engineering degree as it equates modules like electronics, materials, mechanics, etc with the design and arty farty modules of the Art & Design dept. There is also Consumer Product Design , Automotive Styling, BOat design…the list goes on based in the Art & Design dept. Depending on which way you want to swing. I’d say, not blowing any trumpets, that Coventry would possibly be above brunel and Derby. But you may also take a look at nottingham and Loughborough for the IPD programs…which i foolishly didn’t. But then again, the RCA has a reputation above all else, its just getting accepted…
If you are really interested in the ‘job at the end of it’, then why not request a list of companies that previous students are now working for from each university. This could maybe help your decision also…
