College of Design and Innovation (D&I), Tongji University, was developed from the Art and Design Department of the College of Architecture and Urban Planning, Tongji University.

The design education at Tongji University began in the 1940s, and deeply influenced by the German “Bauhaus” school, it has long been based on the architectural education and formed an “absorbing and inclusive” learning style. Department of Art and Design began enrolling undergraduate students in 1986. The Department of Industrial Design was formally established in 1993 and the Department of Art Design was added in 2000, conferring Bachelor’s Degree of Engineering and Bachelor’s Degree of Arts. At the same year, the Department of Industrial Design was renamed the Department of Art and Design, which began enrolling postgraduates majoring in Design Arts in 2001, conferring Master’s Degree of Arts.Since 2002, the doctoral students studying design history and theory in Tongji University were granted Doctor of Engineering degree. In 2015, Tongji University obtained the degree-granting authority of Doctor of Design and accepted the first intake of Doctor of Design in 2016. The prospective doctoral graduates can be awarded either Doctor of Art degree or Doctor of Engineering degree.

In May, 2009, Tongji University drew on the latest ideas and models of world design and innovation disciplines and developed the Department of Art and Design into the College of Design and Innovation, Tongji University. The establishment of the college aimed to better meet the need for design and innovation because of social, economic, technological and environmental changes, especially to meet the need for design and innovation when China is turning from manufacturing China to creating China and when Shanghai is changing the way of economic growth and upgrading industrial structure, and to conform to Tongji University’s sustainability-oriented discipline development strategy. The college is committed to the mission of cultivating “sustainable designing and innovating” leading talents needed urgently by the new era. The overall goal of the college is to establish an international, innovative, forward-looking and research-oriented world-class college of design with great sense of mission of the era, international perspective and native characteristics.

In 2010, Tongji University cooperated with Aalto University and established “Tongji-Aalto Design Factory” and “Tongji University Sino-Finnish Center”, which have become a world-famous internationalized, cross-disciplinary and open innovation platform through integrating design creativity, science and technology and economic management discipline with “design thinking”. In 2012, the College of Design and Innovation was chosen to be the pilot college at Tongji University, and carried out reforms and experiments in management system, talent cultivation, discipline construction, etc.

同济大学设计创意学院，由同济大学建筑与城市规划学院艺术设计系发展而来。

同济大学的设计教育发轫于上个世纪四十年代，深受德国“包豪斯”学派的影响，长期以来以建筑学教育为基础，具有“博采众长、兼容并包”的学风。1986年，同济大学建筑与城市规划学院开始工业设计本科招生，1993年正式成立工业设计系，2000年增设艺术设计专业，同时授工学学士和文学学士学位，同年工业设计系更名为艺术设计系；2001年开始招收设计艺术学硕士生，授文学硕士学位；2002年开始招收设计历史与理论方向博士生，授工学博士学位；2015年同济大学正式获得设计学博士学位授予权，2016年开始招收设计学博士研究生，可授艺术学或工学博士学位。

2009年5月，同济大学借鉴世界设计与创新学科的最新理念与模式，在同济大学艺术设计系的基础上，成立了“同济大学设计创意学院”。学院的成立是为了更好地应对社会、经济、技术和环境的变革对设计与创新的需求，特别是由“中国制造”向“中国创造”转型的时代背景和转变经济增长方式，升级产业结构的上海发展需求，以及同济大学可持续发展为导向的学科发展战略。学院致力于培养新时代急需的“可持续设计创新”领军人才为使命。学院的总体建设目标是成为一个兼具时代使命、全球视野、本土特色的国际化、创新型、前瞻性、研究型的世界一流设计学院。

2010年，同济大学和芬兰阿尔托大学合作成立“同济－阿尔托设计工厂”和“同济大学中芬中心”，通过“设计思维”整合设计创意、科学技术和经济管理学科，成为全球知名的国际化、跨学科、开放创新平台。2012年，同济大学设计创意学院被确定为同济大学试点学院，在管理体制、人才培养、学科建设等多方面进行改革和试点。
