09 June

At the St. Petersburg State University of Industrial Technologies and Design, an open defense of diploma and course projects of students of the profile "3D Industrial Design and Engineering" took place. The educational program was opened at the university in 2022 at the Department of Interior Design and Equipment as part of the implementation of the Priority-2030 program of the Ministry of Education and Science of Russia at the university.

"The educational program "3D industrial design and engineering" trains specialists who create a modern subject environment: medical equipment, electronic devices, household appliances, transport, industrial equipment and much more. No modern item can do without the hand of an industrial designer, improving its aesthetic, ergonomic and technological properties. Students studying this training profile have been studying all the necessary computer programs since the first month, working on product design from the first semester, "says Dmitry Mareev, curator of the 3D Industrial Design and Engineering educational program at Ƶ.

Among the projects presented by students are rehabilitation complexes, laboratory equipment, objects made of recycled textiles, layout for people with disabilities, educational toys, consumer electronics, stylish accessories. The industrial design of each object was developed in a full cycle, from research and sketches to design study and layout.

"The practice-oriented nature of training is aimed at ensuring that students are immersed in professional work from the very first days of training. We teach children to think, model, visualize, work with industrial equipment and 3D printers, visually depict their ideas in the form of sketches, work in a team. Many of the works that are presented on open defenses this year were performed as part of tenders or commissioned by various organizations. Such established connections contribute to the fact that senior students already know where they will work after receiving a diploma," adds Dmitry Mareev.

Fourth-year students conducted deeper research and developed their own design solutions for children's rehabilitation and educational complexes, a workbench for people with disabilities, and a modular kitchen.

Third-year students developed a 3D computer mouse, power tools, a saliva pump, a remote-controlled wheelchair, the interior of a scientific laboratory, and a button for a quiz.

Second-year students presented collections of plumbing, objects made of recycled textiles, tools for the garden, for working with leather, for servicing a 3D printer, construction tools, a children's thermometer, irrigators for teeth and oral cavity, trimer, furniture, carriers for animals.

First-year students presented their work on a variety of topics, offering unique design solutions. Among them: docking stations, lamps and nightlights, bottle bags, wooden educational toys, cases and case bags for gadgets.
