program!<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"please-read-this-degree-guide-prior-to-registering\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Please read this degree guide prior to registering.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Congratulations on your decision to pursue a Bachelor of Industrial Design degree! You are embarking on an educational program which will provide you with up-to-date skills and the knowledge to succeed in your chosen design career.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For students who are unfamiliar with the program, the nature of a professional program, such as Industrial Design, allows for few choices in course selection. The majority of the program is composed of core and required courses with electives in certain years. In first-year, the program contains only required and core courses. However, those first-year students with advanced standing credits for previous studies will have the opportunity to register in elective courses that will count towards the requirements of second or third year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Industrial Design students will find valuable information on the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/id\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">School\u2019s website<\/a>. The website includes registration information, schedules, Academic Orientation Day information, and much more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As part of Academic Orientation Day we look forward to welcoming you to the School of Industrial Design. The Director of the School will greet all new and returning students at the orientation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"computer-requirements\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a><\/a>Computer Requirements<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Students in the School of Industrial Design (SID) purchase their own laptop systems. It is mandatory for students to have a suitable laptop computer as described in the SID Undergraduate Computer Requirements document (available on the SID website) by the first term of their first year of study. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"your-degree-program\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a><\/a>Your Degree Program<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Design studios, which begin in first year and continue throughout the four-year program, focus on hands-on design projects. Students complement their studio courses with academic subjects like psychology, science, business, manufacturing and ergonomics. Initially students take more academic courses than studio courses to increase their understanding of areas related to design. By fourth year the educational emphasis is on studio-based practice. Students are required to complete a minimum 12 week internship OR take the Co-op option before graduating from the program. It is important to note the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/calendar.carleton.ca\/undergrad\/undergradprograms\/industrialdesign\/#regulationstext\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Program Regulations<\/a>\u00a0as they affect year-to-year progression in the program. For more information, please visit the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/id\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">School of Industrial Design website<\/a>. In addition to a Major in Industrial Design, students have the opportunity to Minor in programs such as Business, Psychology, Sociology, Anthropology, Technology, Society and Environment, etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"for-further-program-information\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a><\/a>For Further Program Information<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/id\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">The School of Industrial Design website<\/a>&nbsp;contains program details.
