工业设计课程是面向高中生的动手夏季课程。它不仅在物体和空间中探索设计的潜力，而且还在思维，方法论和观察方式中探索设计的潜力。当学生形成进行设计的哲学基础时，他们将不仅研究该学科的“方法”，而且研究其“原因”。通过动手和实验，学生从概念上着手研究项目，同时考虑项目的目标以及“周边”成果–不断将他们的工作置于世界范围内。物理原型设计和建筑以小组讨论和对设计世界中当代趋势和概念的探索为补充。学生分析市场中的示例，并通过对设计和制造过程的指导调查来工作。这些先例可帮助指导学生在实现新产品原型（从消费者到未来的设计
The Industrial Design course is a hands-on summer program for high school students. It explores the potential of design not only in objects and spaces but in thinking, methodology, and ways of seeing. As students form a philosophical foundation from which to design, they will investigate not only the ''how'' but also the ''why'' of the discipline. Through hands on making and experimentation, students approach projects conceptually, considering the goal of the project as well as the ''peripheral'' outcomes – constantly putting their work in the context of the world. Physical prototyping and building are supplemented by group discussions and explorations of contemporary trends and concepts within the design world. Students analyze examples from the marketplace and work through guided investigations of their design and manufacturing processes. These precedents help guide the students' own design development as they work toward the realization of new product prototypes, transforming from consumers into future designers.
