Kentucky now has its first Product Design program! The University of Kentucky is starting their B.S. of Product Design this Fall.

“No other institution of higher education in Kentucky offers a degree in industrial or product design,” said Dean Mitzi Vernon. “By providing this new program, UK will be a magnet for Kentucky high school students who would otherwise have to travel outside the Commonwealth to experience such an opportunity.”

Students will obtain the Bachelor of Science degree in Product Design upon completion of the four-year curriculum, which includes a diverse array of special topics courses from contemporary technology, healthcare, professional development to furniture design and more.

Jonathan Mills, Chair of the Department of Product Design, will share details about the exciting new program and how IDSA members can help support.
