A M.Des. Students may excel at creating cutting-edge, environmentally friendly transportation options for future mobility by enrolling in UPES's transportation and mobility design program. Students develop advanced abilities in this discipline by concentrating on topics including vehicle design, public transportation design, mobility services, urban planning, and sustainability.

Students who complete the program will have a thorough grasp of transit technology and contemporary societal trends. The program places an emphasis on both the creative and practical components of mobility design. Students have practical experience in sketching, drawing, illustrations, materials, and computer-aided design (CAD), which helps them improve their abilities and learn how to apply their creativity to projects that are relevant to their lives. Additionally, via internships, students have the chance to get important industrial experience, furthering their practical expertise.
