IED is the premier membership body that represents product and engineering designers. Accreditation by the IED recognises that our Product Design and Technology BSc course meets an internationally recognised standard of professional competence, ethics, career development goals, and professional aspirations.

As a student on this course you will initially be able to enrol as an IED Student Member, which gives you the opportunity to network with students from other institutions as well as those already working in the industry. An IED Student Membership can also help you to gain professional recognition as a Professional Product Designer or CAD specialist.
