Industrial design is a strategic problem-solving process applicable to products, systems, services and experiences, which results in innovation, business success and a better quality of life.” (Definition of the World Design Organisation, 2015)
Design is a creative activity to be practiced within a professional and well-structured framework. The qualities acquired all throughout trainin...g courses must meet the requirements and expectations of likely employers: well-behaviour, organizational skills, resourcefulness and practical skills. Those qualities must serve the talent and the creativity of young professionals.
Partner of the Chamber of Commerce and Industry of Nantes, L’École de design Nantes Atlantique is a private institution for higher education dedicated to design professions, in association with the University of Nantes.
Founded in 1988 and recognized by the State, the school is a non-profit organization.
Since 1998, L’École de design Nantes Atlantique has been located on the technological campus Atlanpole La Chantrerie, in the northeastern area of Nantes (France), housed in a custom-built facility thanks to the support of local authorities (Nantes Saint-Nazaire Chamber of commerce and industry, the Pays de la Loire regional authorities, the Loire-Atlantique area local council, Nantes Métropole). The only design institution in western France, the school benefits from a unique regional situation.
For ten years now, it has proactively followed an outward-looking international development policy: academic exchange programs, participation in the international association Cumulus, opening of the China Studio in Shanghai and in the India Studio in Delhi, several international MDes programs organized in English and a preparatory class for the master’s year dedicated to French speaking internationale students.
L’École de design Nantes Atlantique is an active member of various academic networks and professional organizations: Conférence des Grandes Écoles (top-tier French higher education institutions), COMUE (Higher Education and Research Clusters) of the Universities of Nantes, Angers and Le Mans... For many years, its students have been awarded prizes in prestigious competitions. The successful careers pursued by our graduates is good proof of the quality of our teaching methods.
25% of our young graduates from 2016 are pursuing international careers. They have headed for 8 destinations: the United States, China, Germany, the Netherlands, Belgium, the United Kingdom, Canada, Singapore.
This openness to the international market can be explained by several factors: the opportunity to study MDes Transcultural Design in China or in India, the obligation for students in their MDes program first year to follow a semester or an internship abroad in a foreign company or agency.
We also notice that one year after graduating, 29% of graduates are still abroad, 26% are employed in the West of France, 40% in Île de France and 34% in the other regions of France.
