Ideally the industrial designer works as part of a team involving engineering, production and marketing. The industrial designer initially concentrates on establishing the concept as a marketable, useable and socially responsible product; and subsequently details the human factors, appearance, function and production. Designers are also involved in the corporate image of companies and products, product graphics and packaging.

The UNSW Bachelor of Industrial Design degree was established in 1989 in response to the need for industrial design graduates capable of a high level of integration with industry. Graduates are able to deal not only with the appearance and ergonomics of a product, but can also commercialize inventions and ideas, integrating engineering, design and marketing requirements. The course prepares students for professional and executive employment in areas involving the research, design and development of manufactured products.
