The Product Design and Development program is the only one of its kind in Canada and will provide you with the unique understanding to develop high-tech, ecological and socially responsible products from concept and design to production. Combining the strengths of Centennial College's School of Communications, Media, Arts and Design and the School of Engineering Technology and Applied Science, the innovative Product Design and Development courses will bring together hands-on learning in product and industrial design and product development with product lifecycle management. Through interdisciplinary, collaborative group projects that will require you to apply all stages of the visual design process, you'll develop creative design problem-solving abilities and strategies.

The Department of Architecture, Interior and Product Design runs a one-semester product, furniture and jewellery design broad-based curriculum common to all first-year Higher Diploma students studying in Product Design, Furniture and Lifestyle Product Design, and Jewellery Design and Technology.

It is designed to reflect the context of basic three-dimensional design and creative knowledge and skills, which serves as an introduction to, and preparation for, the year one students for the next four-semester study in their respective professional product, furniture and jewellery design programmes.
