The Industrial Product Engineering(IPO) programme at Hanzehogeschool in Groningen is a four-year Bachelor of Science that combines creativity with technical expertise to prepare students for a career in industrial design. Throughout the programme, students learn to translate ideas into innovative, user-centred and sustainable products by mastering the full design process—from research and concept development to prototyping and production. Working on real-life projects with companies, students develop strong skills in design, engineering, collaboration and professional presentation, building a solid foundation for a future as an industrial product designer or related design professional.
