Each of these generations exhibits different tendencies in matters of work, family, and education because they encounter with different historical events, social relations and technological developments that help to see and make sense life from a different angle. Considering the individual who performs the design action and is affected by it, and relationship with the social structure due to the nature of the design, it is thought that generational differences will create similar differences in the approach to design action.  \nTherefore, design education as a reflection of design practice will be affected by this difference. Thus, in this study to examine the change dynamics of industrial design education in Turkey within generations theories, in-depth interviews were conducted with different generations’lecturers working in departments of industrial design in Turkey and data were compared within the framework of generations’ theories. As a result of the study, it was seen that changes in education parallel with characteristics of the generations due to changes of the generation of both the lecturers and the students. It also put forward the importance of being able to create a structure of education that is open to support changes.  \nKeywords  \nGeneration Theories, Design Education, Generation Difference  \nIntroduction  \nAs well as the use of the concept of generations which draws attention to generational differences in social life throughout history, it is used in academic areas such as sociology, psychology, philosophy, political science, and demography. The sociological meaning used in this study describes individuals born in the same period, affected by the same historical events and who have common characteristics with their common experience. According to Jaeger (1985), interest in generations research began to examine how generations' historical movements and changes were actualized. Subsequently it gained popularity with the development of technology and the information age. With increasing interest, generational theories have been handled by different authors and used to explain human behavior indifferent fields. The studies reached within the scope of this study were classified as shown in Figure 1 and a concept map related to the field of generational theories was created. The first scientific research on generations started with Comte, and the flow of regular publications started with the work of Francois Montre (Jaeger, 1985) . In this sense, two important contributions to generations studies were provided by Karl Mannheim (1928) and Jose Ortega y  \nGasset (1923) . In the recent past the generation theory developed by Strauss and Howe (1991) brings a new perspective to generational studies. As seen in Figure 1, many studies have been carried out on the basis that these authors built.  \nFig. 1 Generation Theories Conceptual Field Map  \nAccording to generation classifications, five different generations, that are the Silent Generation, Baby Boomer, X, Y and Z Generation, live together nowadays. Each of these generations has different characteristics, attitudes and behaviors shaped by different historical events and experiences. As seen in Figure 1, the range of research related to these differences has diversified in recent years such as business values, motivational factors, education life, approach to technology and consumer behavior.
