It argued that a masters degree in industrial design would help graduates specialise in the related field and improve their skills. Therefore, institutional and academic structures of the seven programmes offering masters degrees’ in ID in Turkey were analysed in this study. In addition to this, two survey studies were carried out among the teaching staff in order to find out the current status of the programmes in terms of their strengths and weaknesses. As a result of the field study, problems concerning the academic staff of masters programmes came into prominence as the most important weaknesses despite positive progress witnessed in the increasing number of programmes. In addition, the required improvements of Higher Education Council criteria for the discipline were also found to be a critical situation for the future of programmes.  \nKey words  \nindustrial design education, curriculum, masters degree programme, comparative analysis, Turkey  \n1 Introduction  \nIndustrial design (ID), is an integrated profession which covers a wide range, including engineering (technology, techniques, material and processing), ergonomics (operation, safety, usability, sensation), business (marketing, management, planning, corporate identity), aesthetics (form, visualisation, style), and can even involve social, environmental, and cultural issues (Yang, et al. , 2005; 155) .  \nIndustrial design, as it incorporates interdisciplinary characteristics, plays a crucial role in sustaining andreforming nations, societies, and industries. From this standpoint, it can be said that particular characteristics of ID are mostly associated with or the result ofthe ID education, which is a more complicated phenomenon in the countries like Turkey where industry is still underdevelopment than the industrialised countries in Europe and North America.  \nDesign education is one of the areas in which one can observe the convergence of concepts, methods, and technologies originating from the centre, with the  \nparticularities of each peripheral country like Turkey where local dynamics can be crucially important (Er, 2001; 1) .  \nInterrelations between industry and design education recently became an important issue in Turkey. It was in the mid 1990s, particularly following the emergence of a liberal economy, customs union, laws, and legislations concerning intellectual property rights in Turkey that educational institutions began to establish real ties with industry. Industrial designers in Turkey are now employed in large, medium, and small-sized enterprises. Some of them run their own design consultancy firms developing projects for various industries. Thus, it is important to provide ID education based on the true local needs of the Turkish industry, as well as the latest developments and trends in the world so as to bring innovation through design, and be able to compete with many local and foreign firms (Evyapan, et al. , 2005; 138) .  \nIncorporating the notion of ID into a firm undoubtedly calls for a strategic plan and series of actions to be taken. For instance, managers, marketing people and engineers should be equipped with the notion of ID, and designers’qualifications should be improved through education. As Asatekin et al. point out,“such a dual action maintains interactivity between distinct phases ofthe product development process such as design, production, and marketing and improves the communication link between the team members in a design unit and between different units in an organisation”(Asatekin, et al. , 1997, 3) .  \nAs argued in published literature on design education,","cbCaiaTRRPqbqZfe","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiaTRRPqbqZfe","pdf",191748,17,"English","# Introduction\n## Study aims and routes","[{\"question\":\"What was the focus of this study on industrial design education?\",\"answer\":\"The study focused on master’s degree programmes in industrial design (ID), emphasizing research- and practice-oriented education shaped by current themes and design principles.\"},{\"question\":\"How did the researchers assess the seven master’s programmes in Turkey?\",\"answer\":\"They analyzed institutional and academic structures of seven ID master’s programmes and conducted survey studies among teaching staff to evaluate strengths and weaknesses.\"},{\"question\":\"What major weaknesses were identified for the future of these programmes?\",\"answer\":\"The study found that problems concerning academic staff were the most important weaknesses, and that required improvements in Higher Education Council criteria created a critical situation for the future.\"}]","Comparative Analysis Of Master Of Industrial Design Education In Turkey | PDF",1792092908,43]
