Magazine

Design World is published as a monthly magazine and mailed free of charge to a qualified subscriber base. According to a BPA Worldwide audit, 100% of Design World's subscribers are qualified^[5]; meaning they have requested to receive the magazine through an approved subscription method. Design World is printed on heavier stock paper than most B2B magazines of its type and does not adhere to the traditional dimensions of most magazines (9"x10^7/8").

The magazine is organized by using departments. Each issue has an editorial, Insights, written by one of our qualified editors. Every issue also covers a topic on Green Engineering as well as areas of focus in FEA, Software, & Networking. Design For Industry is a department in the front of the magazine that covers various industries and products or services directly related to that industry. Each magazine usually has between four and five feature articles known as Applying the Fundamentals, and one of these is usually picked as the cover story. Design World also covers different product releases in the Product World department as well as any upcoming trade shows, conferences, or exhibitions. The primary audience for Design World Magazine is USA, but some international subscribers opt to pay to have a subscription mailed abroad.
