Abstract

This article delves into the various challenges that design major students encounter during their on-the-job internship. One of the significant challenges is the lack of practical experience. Design students often find it difficult to apply theoretical knowledge to real-world scenarios, resulting in a sense of uncertainty and inefficiency in their work. Additionally, they may face difficulties in communication and collaboration. Interacting with colleagues and clients from diverse backgrounds can be challenging, as they struggle to convey their ideas effectively and understand the needs of others. Moreover, the high work pressure can be overwhelming for these students, as they are required to meet tight deadlines and handle multiple tasks simultaneously. Another issue is the lack of creative inspiration. Coming up with innovative design concepts on a regular basis can be mentally exhausting, and students may find it hard to stay motivated and inspired. in response to these challenges, several countermeasures can be implemented. Firstly, students should actively participate in practice. By engaging in more practical projects and seeking opportunities to gain hands-on experience, they can enhance their skills and confidence. Secondly, improving communication skills is crucial. Students should learn how to express themselves clearly, listen attentively to others, and build effective relationships. Thirdly, it is important to reasonably arrange time. Creating a schedule that balances work and rest can help students better manage their workload and avoid burnout. Lastly, broadening the vision is essential. By exploring different design styles, trends, and cultures, students can expand their creative horizons and generate more innovative ideas.
