Experience Design Thinking | hei_INNOVATION | Deadline: 6 December | Heidelberg
What: Entrepreneurial Skills Module – Experience Design Thinking
When: December 6 and 7, 2024 | 9 am to 5 pm
Where: hei_INNOVATION Hub
Who: Motivated, interested, and committed students, PhDs and Post-docs who are interested in thinking “outside the box” and developing solutions for relevant issues.
Info: In the elective module "Experience Design Thinking" students go through the practice-oriented design thinking process and work on real challenges. The students, who are expected to be from different faculties and departments, will be divided in cross-semester and interdisciplinary teams as they develop user-focused solutions to diverse presented challenges. Teams go through the design-thinking process in brief design-sprint units. This teaches them the user-focused approach to generating innovative solutions to complex problems. In accompanying input sessions, students will learn the basics of design thinking, which they can apply to their projects right away. The design-thinking techniques help students solve complex problems in an agile and creative manner. They are applied directly in the process of developing innovative prototypes for products, services, or processes.
