HONDA DESIGN
FOR MAKERS
Program Overview:
Design for Makers introduces Michigan Career and Technical Education (CTE) students to industrial and product design through a two-week, tuition-free summer program hosted in CCS's Product Design studios. Participants learn design thinking, prototyping, and fabrication, 3D printing, and digital modeling tools. The experience helps students connect technical skills to creative career pathways in advanced manufacturing.
Course Description:
This exclusive, two-week program is designed for elite high-level makers who are ready to bridge the gap between "building" and "designing." While you already know how to use the tools, this course will challenge you to think like an Industrial Designer.
In a high-energy, collaborative environment of just 16 scholarship recipients, you will move beyond hobbyist projects and enter the professional world of product development. Using the same principles that drive Honda's innovation-efficiency, sustainability, and user-focused design-you will identify a real-world problem, ideate a solution, and build a high-fidelity functional prototype.
