Hi Vishal,

There is an open course through Pratt's Continuing Ed program in Product
Design and Drawing for Product Design. They have two versions. 1 for people
considering to join their Industrial Design Masters Program and one for
everyone else.

I took both classes in the same semester-the ones for those thinking about
attending the MID program.

They were sooooo worth it. I learned so much about both design and product
design. I recommend these courses for anyone in IxD who got here from
non-design backgrounds. Thinking in a different medium lets your mind go and
learning in a design studio background was great! Nothing brings more
humility than working in a studio with other students.

Anyway, that's my recommendation. :)
