The students are also expected to have a clear and logistic approach to determine optimal costs and budgets of the product.

The preliminary duties assigned to a product designer begin from the interaction with the client and receiving a brief. Subsequently the designer conducts extensive user research regarding the product according to the needs of the customer and must come up with a presentable proposal of their ideas. Next, the product designer needs to develop these ideas and make elementary sketches. Once they are confident about the product design, they must start procuring materials which are suitable according to the initial plan and the related resources to create the product.
