The department of Industrial Design (ID) of the Technische
Universiteit Eindhoven (TU/e), founded in 2001, is a rapidly growing
department with over 550 students, both Bachelor and Master, and
around 200 staff members. With a strong emphasis on research the ID
department focuses on the design of intelligent products, systems, and
related services. These innovative systems and products enable people
to interact with their environment in an optimal and flexible way. The
TU/e ID engineer, who has developed a wide range of competencies
during his/her education, is capable of integrating technology, user
aspects, design and business/marketing insights. This MSc-program is
practice oriented, capable to deal with and aware of relevant issues
as formulated by industry and society at large. Ambient Intelligence
and Cultural Computing draw special attention within the TU/e and ID
particular, and is an important research and application field. ID

Intelligence ( DI) group, User aspects, covered by User-Centred
Engineering (UCE) group, Design, covered by the Designing Quality in
Interaction (DQI) group, and Business, covered by the Business Process
Design (BPD) group.
