What is a Package Design Manager and how do you become one?

Question

I was wondering how many years in college, classes to take, etc. also.

Answer 1

Usually package designers take industrial design in school--you learn about packaging materials, industrial design (graphic arts), and how to mesh the packaging with the actual product inside. There's a scientific side (need to know lots about plastics, paper, etc.) and artistic (graphic design). Usually there is an industrial design major at schools, but it's not at every school. You might even take some architecture courses, as this relates directly to package design.

Answer 2

Package design is involved in the wonderful world of Product design^^ (i.e. graphic products)
package design is designing packages for products that would look appealing to the customer (the target audience) and it would dsplay info about the product on it.

As a manager you would b in charge of what wuld actually go on te product, not the desgner.
