Product Design in Uganda: The Rise of SASA College of Industrial Design (SCiD)
Product design is a rapidly growing field in Uganda, as the country's manufacturing industry continues to expand. However, until recently, there has been no dedicated institution in Uganda that offers formal training in product design. This has made it difficult for aspiring product designers to get the skills and knowledge they need to succeed in the industry.
That is all about to change since the launch of SASA College of Industrial Design. SCiD is the first official product school in Uganda, and it is poised to make a major contribution to the country's product design industry.
SCiD offers a two-year diploma program in industrial design. The program covers a wide range of topics, including:
In addition to the academic curriculum, SCiD also offers a number of extracurricular activities that are designed to help students develop their skills and network with industry professionals. These activities include:

SCiD is a welcome addition to the product design landscape in Uganda. The college's unique combination of academic rigor and hands-on experience will help to prepare students for success in the industry. As SCiD continues to grow, it is sure to play a major role in the development of Uganda's product design industry.
Poised to make a major contribution to the product design industry in Uganda in a number of ways, firstly, the college will provide formal training in product design, which is currently lacking in the country. This will help to raise the standards of product design in Uganda and create a more skilled workforce.
Secondly, SCiD will connect students with industry professionals through its mentorship program. This will give students the opportunity to learn from experienced designers and get their foot in the door of the industry.
Thirdly, SCiD will promote the importance of product design in Uganda. The college will do this through its public outreach programs and by working with businesses and government agencies to raise awareness of the value of good design.
Overall, SASA College of Industrial Design is a valuable resource for the product design industry in Uganda. The college's graduates will be well-equipped to succeed in the industry, and the college's work will help to raise the standards of product design in the country.
The launch of SASA College of Industrial Design is a major milestone for the product design industry in Uganda.
