dude, best advice i can give is to


just give it a whirl. u dont need a degee for these things if u got the talent and tenacity. take some classess on autocad,


books and stuff, then go for interviews with your portfolio.


i know, i dont have a degree, but here i am working in new york as a designer, based entirely on my portfolio, and im from freaking south east asia. granted it took a coupla years, but sacrifice is the key word.
Reply:put together a really good portfolio and try to highlight your ability and desire to learn? That's about all I can think of short of getting a degree or really lucky!
Reply:you still need to go to college to get a design degree in order to get into an industrial design job these days.
