Design studio courses are the basis of industrial design education. The product design projects carried out by academic and private sector experienced full-time and part-time instructors are shaped in line with the domain and experience of the lecturers. Assessment criteria may also change with the content of each product design project implemented. Instructors convey the values and approaches they consider to the students through the teaching methods they prefer throughout the process. In the industrial design studio education, where teaching takes place through experience transfer, different types of experience and knowledge are brought together by instructors and students collaboratively throughout the process. Within the scope of the study, the different approaches of the full-time and part-time instructors in the project development processes in the product design studios were examined through the professional domains and experiences of the instructors in Turkey. In order to do so, a survey was conducted with both parties. The collected data were analysed with the Chi-Square Independence test, and significant relationships were determined between the experiences, teaching methods, and design process approach of full-time and part-time instructors carrying out the product design studio. Participants’ opinions about design techniques, design assessments and shortcomings of education were listed in the table and the distributions of the answers were shown. In this direction, evaluations and suggestions regarding the transfer of experience in product design education have been shared.
