More about this course
  • This course provides an introduction to the foundational activities related to design thinking: a flexible, yet systematic process to define and solve problems. A common misconception is that design thinking requires artistry, but it is not centered on artistic principles. Design thinking is a strategy and mindset that can be applied to any industry to solve problems.
  • As part of the Design Thinking MicroMasters program, this course will explore methods used to evaluate problems, develop ideas, and create innovative solutions with the user in mind. Focusing on the importance of user understanding and the development of desirable, feasible, and viable ideas, this course will provide an overview of the design thinking process from end to end.

    Other: Design thinking was a subpart of an entire course on corporate innovation provided by University of Queensland. I leaned how I can make design thinking my mindset and also use it as a process for innovation. Tim Kastelle who took us through the design thinking part of the course is an associate professor at University of Queensland and director of their MBA program.
