Delft University of Technology

Within the Faculty of Industrial Design at TU Delft, the Department of Design for Sustainability deals with sustainable product development and design within the circular economy. The department focuses on all aspects of the circular economy, such as business models (see also Products that Last) and all loops within the circular economy. In particular, design for repair and maintenance, refurbishment and remanufacturing, and recycling. With a department of over 30 researchers and educators, we train 300+ undergraduate and 100+ graduate students each year in circular product design.
