The University of Michigan Tauber Institute for Global Operations presents the Fall 2020 Integrated Product Development Trade Show, featuring innovative products created by business, engineering, information, and art & design students.
Taught jointly by faculty of the Ross School of Business and the Stamps School of Art & Design, the annual Integrated Product Design course challenges cross-disciplinary student teams from the College of Engineering, Ross School of Business, Stamps School of Art & Design, and School of Information to design, build, and market a brand new product, and then to face free market competition through the IPD Trade Show. This course marks the 26th Trade Show.
