About Master in Motorcycle Design, Master Degree - at IAAD. - Institute of Applied Art and Design

The Master’s programme will address disciplines related to the design of motorcycles and scooters starting from the study of body style, volumes and proportions through designs that will bring the student confronted with briefs on which to define a proper strategy consistent with the target market and brand.

The designs will develop from the brief, leading through the stages of marketing, idea generation, sketching and rendering, to the final presentation of the proposal. Particular space will be devoted to designs in the area of sustainable mobility, with the aim of providing a design methodology useful for approaching in a systematic and structured way the design of transportation conceived to be environmentally, socially and economically sustainable.

Students will also be engaged in making virtual models of their own designs, supported by the modeling and rendering course.
Finally, Strategies for the development of presentations and portfolios having effective visual and communicative effects through proper content organization will be illustrated.

The Master’s programme offers a new design approach especially with reference to phenomena such as the electrification of vehicles, urban “bike sharing,” and the increasing diffusion of light vehicles such as e-bikes, but also slow vehicles such as electric scooters and personal devices, which are increasingly used in synergy with the automobile or in alternative to public transport.

WHY IS IAAD. DIFFERENT FROM OTHER MOTORCYCLE DESIGN MASTERS?
The best way to become a professional in Transportation Design is by being trained to learn from experts in the field. Thanks to this insight, IAAD. is the first Italian school of higher education specializing in Transportation Design. More than 40 years of experience in the field of Transportation, the Institution’s research assets in the field of Mobility, and experience in the development of innovative mobility solutions in cooperation with leading partner companies all come together in the Master’s programme.

The design work carried out in collaboration with IAAD. partner companies allows students to put into practice what they study in an environment very similar to what they will encounter in the professional field.

This system also allows students to simulate working conditions in a professional context: working with precise deadlines, correcting work in progress following customer feedback, working in teams and with specific objectives.
