Career Course: Design Thinking 101

Design thinking stands for design-specific cognitive activities that designers apply during the process of designing.  But you knew that.

In this interactive, two-hour workshop, Natalie Nixon—Vassar graduate and Philadelphia University’s G. Allen Mebane IV ¹52 Endowed Chair for Design Thinkers—will explain the basic tenets of design thinking. The workshop will look at how a range of companies are integrating this method to spark new thinking about problem-solving and problem-framing.
