Do it! PdP is one of the most hands-on courses, and you get to work on professional level with industry. It’s a great challenge, and you get a lot of growth as a PM.

“I was suprised by the power of teambuilding, bonding in a human way! You get so much better results than just having a sterile, professional setting.”

“PdP is 3 words? Intimitating. Complex. Exiting!”

“The most rewarding thing is to get the ideas off the paper, even if they’re crude or ugly—just to test them out as prototypes!”

“It’s very therapeutic to be in the Labs and do something with your hands.”

“PDP opened a lot of doors by helping me build valuable connections, friendships, and practical skills that support my future career. This course also helped me explore my professional direction.

“PDP is a place where real growth happens through hands-on projects, supportive teammates, and access to incredible tools and resources. It encourages creativity and gives you a safe environment to try new ideas and develop your skills.”

“Some of the main reasons that led me to participate in PdP were: long term project with a lot of freedom and flexibility where students make decisions and shape the outcome and final prototype while working in close collaboration with industry.”

“During PdP, we had the opportunity to try new things and work on challenging tasks, at times it was difficult, but it was very rewarding and emotional when things worked, what I gained from teamwork is unique in PDP.”

“What kept me going throughout the project, was that Design Factory is this amazing place that you never know who you are going to meet, not only students from different schools but experts that can answer your questions. This place draws so many interesting and cool people that are also highly dedicated, a lot of my other classes don’t offer that.”

“PdP is an interdisciplinary roller coaster!”

“In PdP you will learn things that you cannot learn anywhere else. It is not easy, but it might be worth it”
