Abstract

This paper aims to present two projects developed at the level of master education both in the areas of product and communication design. Through them the authors emphasize the empirical studies that supported the results exposing the methodologies used and underlining the importance of user’s participation in the process of developing a solution. Furthermore as a result of the analysis of the projects the authors suggest a matrix that relates contents to be taught with competences to be acquired at this level of design education.
