The Designer in Society

Catalog description

This class focuses on individuals and their psychological wellbeing. The class delves into how students perceive themselves and their work, and how they might use design thinking to lead a more creative and committed life. As a participant you read parts of a different book each week and then engage in exercises designed to unlock learnings. In addition, there are two self-selected term projects dealing with eliminating a problem from your life and doing something you have never done before. Apply the first day during class. Attendance at the first session is mandatory.
