Abstract
![CDATA[This paper reports on recent developments on an international collaborative industrial design studio project entering its fourth year of existence between three universities in three different countries. Run from a third year design studio unit at University of Western Sydney (UWS), the project benchmarks Australian students with counterparts in Canada (Alberta University) and Chile (Metropolitan University of Technology). Thanks to using latest design, communication, prototyping and simulation technologies, it focuses on challenges to education to achieve intended learning outcomes confronted with issues of globalisation, heterogeneous base and retention constrains; university as gatekeeper of professional standards while confronted with technological changes and new distributed professional, manufacturing and production developments; research on teaching and learning, new methodologies and process relating to design, manufacturing, implementation and delivery of products and services; development of new dynamics of work and production through distributed means of communication and manufacturing (internationalisation and globalisation of design).]]
