Industrial Design Training Strate School of Design

Overview

Because they work on life scenarios where many issues are intertwined, designers apply cross-disciplinary knowledge, methodologies and techniques. They are also the bearer of specific knowledge, practices and skills. The Industrial Design Cursus is a 5-year program designed to build both of these dimensions.

• Years 1 & 2: You learn the fundamentals of design — observing, drawing, understanding usages, and representing ideas (sketching, volume, color, photography, modeling) — alongside core skills in communication, humanities and design English. You explore our five specialization departments — Product Design, Space Design, Mobility Design, Identity Design and Interaction Design — testing each before choosing your path.

• Year 3: Join your chosen department, work on real projects supervised by professional designers, and complete your first internship.
• Year 4: Spend a semester abroad to discover other design cultures and collaborate with renowned companies (mobility, luxury, sport, industry).
• Year 5: Complete your graduation project and a long internship to launch your career.

Unique opportunities: Recognized in France and worldwide for over 30 years, we offer dual degrees with GEM, EM Lyon, HEC Montréal, Centrale Lyon and Domus Academy.

Our mission: Give you the keys to a successful career through hands-on projects, internships and a network of partner companies — and shape you into a conscious, creative and responsible designer, capable of imagining solutions for a simpler, fairer, more beautiful world.
