Design, Innovation and Society is a space for students to engage with the design process by creating human-centered solutions. These solutions will address real world and everyday challenges by utilizing creativity, empathy, inclusivity and perspective taking. In this group the students become inventors and change-makers while facilitators provide the necessary materials, skills, or perspective needed to bring their ideas to fruition. They’ll explore the various stages of the design process including brainstorming, team building, ideation, prototyping, testing/feedback, iteration and final deliverables!
All forms of designers and inventors are welcome here, from those interested in product or web design all the way to curriculum and systems design! Students will learn the technical skills needed to excel within engineering and design professional fields alongside an understanding of the moral and ethical dilemmas that go hand-in-hand with innovation
