Reviews for this courseTestudo

"Explorations in Design" gives students the opportunity to apply their unique backgrounds to the realm of design. Students will engage in hands-on learning with real world applications to incorporate design thinking into everyday life. By exploring each stage of the design process (from ideating to prototyping), students will develop a final project to pitch at the end of the semester.
