IDES-3210 Language of Line–Fa 4 hours Rapid visualization (Power Drawing) skills will be presented in lecture, demonstration, progressive hand-generated drawing exercises, and project work in an in-depth study of the “language of line” and how it generates visual confidence. The course analyzes the three keys to drawing authority: form, position and texture. Further, the course will place these elements into a process that will produce and solve design problems ranging from understanding basic volumes to successfully illustrating complex volumes through study of applied science, ergonomics, and ethics. Prerequisite: IDES-3120 Drawing in Dynamic Perspective II. IDES-3220 Innovative Media Systems–Fa 4 hours Through the use of the latest digital and traditional design tools, students will develop and demonstrate their previously learned skills and knowledge in industrial design, creative problem-solving, and visual communication techniques by way of market-relevant studio exercises, hands-on design labs, and experientiallearning projects. Prerequisite: IDES-3120 Drawing in Dynamic Perspective II. IDES-3310 3 hours Fundamentals of Surface Development I–Sp This study will introduce the principles of creating innovative shapes, forms, and volumes, and explore how they in turn influence manufacturing systems. Students will engage in using a variety of materials such as paper, structural foam, plastics, glass, wood, etc., to successfully convey a three-dimensional model interpretation. Prerequisite: IDES-3220 Innovative Media Systems. IDES-3320 3 hours Fundamentals of Surface Development II–Sp The principles of this course will expand the model-building skill base by working with an advanced palette of materials to successfully illustrate a set of three-dimensional models. Prerequisite: IDES-3310 Fundamentals of Surface Development I. IDES-3410 Three-Dimensional Composition–Sp 4 hours This course will lay the foundations for “finishing techniques” for modeling and act as an overview for the various software, hardware, hand-crafted, and artisan techniques required to gain a deeper appreciation of the visual impact potential of a finished model and/or prototype, and various presentation practices. Prerequisite: IDES-3320 Fundamentals of Surface Development II. IDES-3420 Three-Dimensional Presentation–Sp 4 hours This course is the natural extension of three-dimensional composition. The course focuses on the critical importance of creating, defining, and implementing a series of two-dimensional sketch rendering ideas and converting those ideas into successful three-dimensional model series. Prerequisite: IDES-3410 ThreeDimensional Composition. IDES-4010 Consumer Product Design–Fa 4 hours This course is designed to focus on the development of the designer’s personal vision and preparation for careers in the area of product design. Completed solutions will be created by the candidates through concept sketches, renderings, layout studies, 3-D models, and a final, scale foam study. Prerequisite: IDES-3420 Three-Dimensional Presentation. IDES-4020 Interior Space Design–Fa 3 hours This course is designed to focus on the development of the designer’s personal vision and preparation for careers in the area of interior design. Completed solutions will be created by the candidates through the understanding of human scale, consumer product trends, human interaction, interface, ergonomics, traffic patterns, interior design materials, etc. Prerequisite: IDES-3420 Three-Dimensional Presentation. IDES-4030 Transportation Design–Fa 4 hours This course is designed to focus on the development of the designer’s personal and client visions and for preparation with the career choice of transportation design. Completed solutions will be created through concept sketches exploring the world of mobility (aircraft, watercraft, automobile, etc.) Prerequisite: IDES-3420 Three-Dimensional Presentation. IDES-4040 Architectural/Exterior Space Design–Fa 4 hours Architectural exterior space design concentrates on the discipline of developing the designer’s expertise in utilizing structural materials to create the next generation of architectural design systems. Projects will include glass, metals, stone, and a diverse vocabulary of other materials that integrate the creative process to build confidence for this vocational choice. Prerequisite: IDES-3420 Three-Dimensional Presentation. IDES-4200 4 hours Professional and Ethical Practices in Design–Sp Based on the previous semester’s exposure to various disciplines within the industrial and innovative design degree, the candidate will focus on an area of specialization and, with staff assistance, develop a thesis statement. Further, candidates will receive coaching from professionals and staff in the areas of design business ethics. Prerequisite: IDES-4040 Architectural/ Exterior Space Design. IDES-4300 3 hours Design Project: Selection Statement, Research, and Scope–Sp With staff and professional support, the candidates will embark on a research journey to discover real-world, market-applicable design solution research within a selected area of specialization. Prerequisite: IDES-4200 Professional and Ethical Practices in Design. IDES-4400 Design Project and Presentation–Sp 10 hours In this capstone course, candidates will be assisted in completing their portfolio presentation skills, business case development, professional practices, and receive a professional written and oral critique of their work. Prerequisite: IDES-4300 Design Project: Selection Statement, Research, and Scope. International Studies (INTL) INTL-2100 Global Issues–Sp 3 hours Analysis of the international issues that are shaping our contemporary and future world, ranging from terrorism, the environment, international crime, disease, and collapsing states to the digital revolution and the global economy. Prerequisite: GSS1100 Politics and American Culture. INTL-3040 3 hours History and Politics of the British Isles and Canada–Sp This course examines three countries: the United Kingdom, the Republic of Ireland, and Canada. After an extensive topical history along with a discussion of major prime ministers who served in the 19th and 20th centuries, this course also investigates contemporary issues including foreign policy, recent political debates, secessionist problems in Scotland and Quebec, membership in the European Union, and the ongoing structural changes to government.
