Overview

Advanced Diploma - Product Design and Development

The Product Design and Development program is the only one of its kind in Canada. 

It will provide you with a unique understanding to develop high-tech, ecological and socially responsible products from concept and design to production.

The innovative Product Design and Development courses at Centennial College will combine hands-on learning in product and industrial design and product development with product lifecycle management.

Through interdisciplinary, collaborative group projects that will require you to apply all stages of the visual design process, you'll develop creative design problem-solving abilities and strategies.

You'll also acquire a wide range of other skills in this advanced diploma program, including: 

idea generation, drawing, model-making, 3D CAD advanced computer modelling, rapid prototyping, product development (CAE analysis, reverse engineering technology, materials selection, quality testing, product costing and optimization), product lifecycle management and cross-platform multimedia communications. 

To round out training, you'll gain a strong sense of functional and aesthetic principles of design and a solid understanding of product development's technical and business aspects.
