Want to design some product?

So, you want to design a product, but you don't know where to begin. Consider this analogy: it's nature's call that all babies have to learn how to crawl before they can walk. Before you want to know how to do something, you need to know where to start. Pertaining to product design, first you need to have an engineering degree. Well, you don't have to have a degree. You can learn how to design products without getting an engineering degree. It's possible, but it's not easy. The hard part is how you are getting the experience. You will have a tough time getting an engineering job without an engineering degree. Unfortunately that's how you gain experience in product design. You can learn on your own, but like I said, it takes a lot of determination and persistence on your parts. However, if you are passionate enough to follow your dream, then nothing is impossible. My advice for you is STAY IN SCHOOL and FINISH that degree before you venture out on your own. Don't be so hard on yourself.
