Students may:  

1. Deconstruct and analyze an everyday product/object/mechanism such as a blender, game controller, stapler, etc. Create a 3d digital model and technical drawings of the object. Create a physical model - hand constructed or digitally fabricated (3d printed, CNC, lasercut/engraved). Research and history of the product must be included as well as other examples/precedent studies. Define the user or target group. ​

2. Create or improve upon a product design. Create a 3d digital model and technical drawings of the object. Create a physical model - hand constructed or digitally fabricated (3d printed, CNC, lasercut/engraved). Research and history of the product must be included as well as other examples/precedent studies. Define the user or target group. 

3. Create or improve upon a package design. Create a 3d digital model and technical drawings of the object. Create a physical model - hand constructed or digitally fabricated (3d printed, CNC, lasercut/engraved). Research and history of the product must be included as well as other examples/precedent studies. Define the user or target group.
