edUcationalobjectives

The goal of the degree program is to educate a designer in industrial design, advertising and publishing graphic design, and the design and construction processes of boats and related

components.

The training is focused on aspects of the technical and administrative management of the design process, with the end result of educate a professional who can work in collaboration with the various participants of the entire process, fully understanding and coordinating their respective areas of expertise.

Graduates must know methods, tools, and techniques for the design of industrial products, styles of visual communication, and boats’ fundamentals and technologies. They must also understand the process experience of manufacturing and materials application, techniques of representation, and graphic and multimedia processing.

professionalopportUnities

The areas of employment for graduates in Design del Prodotto e della Nautica are as freelance professionals or in positions in public and private agencies, design studios and firms, companies operating in the area of industrial design and visual or multimedia communication, naval and nautical shipyards, and companies that operate in sectors related to the boating industry.

edUcationalactivities

The program has a duration of three years. The academic year is divided in two semesters: the first semester begins in October and ends in January, the second semester begins in March and ends in June. During the month of February there is a break between semesters while examinations are held.

To obtain the degree the student must earn 180 credits (ECTS), 60 credits per year including an internship of approximately 300 hours.

In order to facilitate the combination of educational and professional aspects, the School has made agreements with public and private companies to provide two types of internships:

-Practical training called for by the didactic requirements, which awards credits stipulated as “other training” by the curricula of the degree programs;

-Optional internships that allow undergraduates and recent graduates (within 18 months of graduation) to engage in a sustained period of professional activity of three months, six months or more, up to a maximum of twelve months. An international internship within the European community is also available.

During the Course, an international students’ mobility experience is available according to the Erasmus European exchange program.

DESIGN PER LA NAUTICA E IL PRODOTTO SOSTENIBILE (Sustainable nautical and product design)

based in Genoa

Chair: Prof. Massimo Musio-Sale musio-sale@arch.unige.it

The PhD program of Design per la Nautica e il Prodotto Sostenibile (Sustainable Nautical and Product Design) is part of the Ph.D. School of Architecture and Design of the University of Genoa.

edUcationalobjectives

The Ph.D. course of Sustainable Nautical and Product Design prepares a professional that has an advanced level of understanding of the specific subjects studied.

The aim of the course is to gain experience and specific skills through participation in a number of activities organized in terms of research, educational and cultural activities, and in design management.

The course aims to train individuals to:

-Design and manage complex processes of industrial product design (especially for boating and sustainable products) playing a coordinating role in interdisciplinary teams.

-Use the tools of design for the enhancement of individuals and / or contexts, with attention and respect to a local, national and international context;

-Enter the industrial production in an environmentally conscious process, which respects the existing structures and cultural landscape and enhances economic development.

-Manage processes of technological innovation and cultural development of idea-design planning, as well as the executive development of processes of quality control and evaluation.

edUcationalactivities

The course has a duration of three years. The curriculum is structured in different formats: lectures, study groups, participation in conferences, courses, seminars, workshops.

To obtain the degree it is necessary to prepare and defend a thesis (written and illustrated). Each student will have one (or more) thesis supervisors.

The curriculum requires earning the following:

-18 credits (ECTS) for completing the three courses common to all the Graduate School;

- 42 credits (ECTS) for internships, courses (of disciplinary knowledge and preparation of naval and nautical design), activities (conferences, seminars, etc.) to be agreed upon with the school’s college;

-10 credits (ECTS) for passing the mid- term (semi-annual) and final reviews of the first year (5 credits each);

-60 credits (ECTS) for research activities in the second and third years (15 credits for each six-monthly and annual review).

-50 credits for the preparation of the thesis research, which will occupy much of the third year, for a total of 180 credits (ECTS) in accordance with the University rules.

During the Course, one or more international mobility experiences are available for any Ph.D. candidate, according to the international relationships of UniGE in his marine research and education, international network.
