Industrial Design: Manufacturing Field Trips
February - May 2017The Manufacturing & Field trips course offers students the opportunity to visit manufacturers here in Quebec to learn and see first hand how products (which they design in class) will be made. This enables them to interact with manufacturers, ask questions and receive feedback pertaining to their designs, helping them grasp how designs are made in the real world.
Manufacturing companies to visit: a Foundry, an injection molding company, Plywood forming, Metal forming company and rotational molding company.
