Course Catalog Description

Selected topics in design innovation. This course cannot be used to complete any course or unit requirement for College of Engineering undergraduates.

Class Description

In this class, you will practice framing and solving actionable, human-centered problems from a complex systems space: Disaster Response, Recovery & Resilience. Selecting from a range of pre-defined problem sets in the disaster response space sourced in collaboration with the National Security Innovation Network (NSIN), students spend the class immersed in a semester-long project to design a technology-based intervention that addresses specific needs identified through the process of the class. Students will develop fluency in key concepts in disaster response, while developing expertise in key design and technology toolkits: design thinking, systems thinking, and readily-accessible platforms to prototype solutions. Interventions will be contextualized and assessed for their relevance as a follow-on program, initiative, or venture by NSIN, and presented to a committee of stakeholders for feedback.
