The basic difference between both is that Product Design is focused on creating a product to enhance user experience. Meanwhile, Industrial Design is focused on the manufacturing process of a product.
A Product Design can include anything from a car to a software, meanwhile Industrial Design work on mass-production such as computers, cars, and so on.

Industrial Systems Design deals with the real-world industrial design scenarios. You can find yourself doing year-long projects analyzing, for example, systems of an ice cream truck, how the product is stored, how much of it goes to waste, how the deliveries are transported, who decides the price, order quantity, and so much more. Many universities also give actual projects from big companies so you gain real experience with real-life problems and solutions. The subject is of utmost importance for students willing to become an industrial engineer in the near future.
