World Design Organization, of which we are an institutional member, defines industrial design in a nutshell as “a trans-disciplinary profession that harnesses creativity to resolve problems and co-create solutions with the intent of making a product, system, service, experience or a business, better.” Industrial designers place people at the heart of the process. They perceive user needs in depth through empathy and apply a pragmatic, user-centered problem solving process to design products, systems, services and experiences. They are the strategic shareholders of the innovation process and are in a unique position to bridge the gap between various professional disciplines and commercial interests. They value the economic, social and environmental effects of their work, as well as its contributions in the creation of a better quality of life. Founded in 2009, our department offers mandatory professional courses, technical courses and professional elective courses to prepare our students to become well-equipped and competitive in their business life.

Abstract

As in all design disciplines, Industrial Design education starts with "Basic Design". It is the most challenging stage for students to learn in a method and to visualize abstract subjects practically that is never encountered until the end of secondary education. According to present data there are 32 universities providing Industrial Design education in Turkey. With the format of a workshop started in 2014 in Ankara where 5 of these universities are located, the effects of common and different methods of student profiles on education were observed. The aim of the workshop format is to introduce students, lecturers and course contents, and the methods of processing to each other, and to help the students with the same education to acquire the ability to do business on common grounds. It is also important to exhibit the works done as workshop outputs. A total of 3 workshops were held in the same format. After 2017, workshops were held in a different format as a result of the increase in the number of students registered in universities and spatial limitations. In this article, joint workshops and joint workshops between different schools and Atilim University Department of Industrial Design have been examined. It is known that in addition to the workshops examined here, there are also collaborative workshops between different schools.
