CDE5302 Design Thinking and Product Development

This course is an opportunity for graduate students to hone fundamental and practical skills in design thinking and product development. Students will learn the roles of design thinking in value creation, product design, discovery of business opportunity, and bridging the gap between problem discovery and solution validation. Students will also gain perspectives in both physical and digital product design through representative works of prominent product and user experience (UX) designers. Students will be immersed in a group design project on emerging themes, for example, digital health, immersive reality, future of transportation, and agri-tech, to solidify the knowledge they learned in the course.
