I study Mechanical Engineering. I am passionate about different art forms, especially fine arts. I face, like you, dilemma of combining your passion of arts with something more concrete like engineering. Following are the options that I have come across to accomplish the same. Though I must mention here that I am no expert of any kind and probably more confused than you are, but I think I can help in at least initiating and directing the process of looking for relevant stuff. It is very common to find people who combine the knowledge of these two disciplines (for example most of the Industrial Design professors are mechanical under-grads), but finding a program that does the same has been pretty daunting for me at least. I hope this doc is helpful even in the smallest way and would be glad to answer any further questions There are two sections: 1. Links to websites of universities/labs offering relevant programs 2. Links to websites wherein people display their work in fields where art/aesthetic sense has to be combined with knowledge of engineering and science. Do keep in mind that these links do not adequately represent even the tip of the iceberg, there is a lot more that should be read. Similar links or links that that come up during ‘Programs similar to XXX’ in google have not been included as such searches and exploring the websites and search results on our own in itself gives us a feel of the field we intend to enter. This search was primarily focused on options after completing engineering studies. However there are a few programs like ETC-NUS etc wherein you enter an integrated program right at the UG level. This field has not been explored much in this document apart from the program mentioned above and its siblings.
