Abstract
Design education is frequently criticized by leaders in the creative industry for failing short of what is promised and expected. As the impact of designers enormously gained by the advancement of technology and connectivity to the world, the education of industrial design seems hemmed in the silo that aims exclusively at the job market. Moreover, changes were rarely made in response to socio-economical and technical changes since it was established. This thesis seeks to delineate the circumstances of Industrial Design education from both historical and disciplinary aspects and suggests a theory in the learning of Industrial Design in response to above mentioned challenges.
