Mckella Daly

I chose to study at ATU Galway for its amazing facilities and its unique selection of courses. As a student of the BA in Design, I specialised in Industrial Design. The BA in Design was the perfect mix of lectures and workshops.

Throughout the Industrial Design course, I was constantly encouraged by my lecturers to learn different skills and explore new ideas. At ATU Galway, Design students are challenged to question norms, ask why and create innovative solutions that positively affect the end user’s experience. 

There is a great variety of modules where we learned about sketching, product photography, computer aided design and product design processes. The course puts a large emphasis on human-centred design, which has been a huge advantage for me in the working environment and has really taught me how to create a product that gives functional and emotional value to the user’s life.

The course has been incredibly helpful and valuable to me and also presented me with huge opportunities such as winning the A’Design Award and European Product Design Award for my final year project.
