工科院校工业设计专业学生的“工程思维”培养方式探讨

Discussion on Engineering Thinking Cultivation of the Industrial Design Students in Engineering Colleges

工科院校工业设计专业是一个创新性的专业,它将工科知识与艺术设计有机的结合在了一起,是一门交叉学科。因此工科类工业设计专业的师资力量非常与众不同,它主要是由工科类的教师和艺术设计类的教师组成,教学中往往不能很好的融合。再加上大多数工科院校的工业设计专业的课程设置更偏向于艺术设计类课程,使得学生在产品功能和使用方面的设计略显不足。本文基于工业设计专业学生的培养目标与教育现状,结合多年教学经验,以及工业设计专业的特殊性,提出培养工科院校工业设计专业学生的"工程思维"的方法。

Industrial design in engineering colleges is a creative profession, which is the interdiscipline. It hangs together both engineering knowledge and art design. So the teaching group of engineering industrial design is very special. It mainly combined with engineering teachers and art teachers, who can＇t merge the two subjects well in their teaching. The art courses of industrial design are more than engineering courses in major engineering colleges. It makes students proved to be lack of ability in the designing of products function and application. Based on the training objective and current education of students of industrial design, this paper proposes methods of how to cultivate Engineering Thinking by experience in teaching and the specificity of this profession.
