Why study product design?

We have reached a point where many products work well and meet our everyday physical needs - but how well do they satisfy and enhance our lives on an emotional level?

There is always a need for highly skilled designers who can explore questions like this.

Product design is an area that rewards those who take risks, challenge conventional thinking and design products, services and user experiences that surprise and delight.
