Abstract:
Product complexity is a new subject in the new curriculum of the Industrial Design bachelor program at the University of Twente. The subject teaches students systematic methods to create engineering models that reproduce a product’s behaviour. The idea is to minimize the complexity of product design by applying proper modelling techniques. Students make use of technical knowledge acquired during their careers to explain how artifacts work.
