The IDSA Pittsburgh (PIT) Chapter serves the networking and professional development needs of industrial designers in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania and surrounding areas. Some of the activities and events that Pittsburgh Chapter has produced include lectures, studio tours, and collaborations with other professional design organizations. 

IDSA Pittsburgh also supports design students in the area, including Carnegie Mellon University, Drexel University, Integrated Product Design (Penn State), Pennsylvania College of Technology, Thomas Jefferson University, University of Pennsylvania, and the University of the Arts. We encourage a strong partnership between the student chapters and the professional chapter that includes portfolio reviews, career development, and social events.

The chapter officers below were elected to position by members of the Pittsburgh Chapter and hold a two-year term.
