Course Description

In this course, you will gain creative confidence and hands-on problem-solving experience. You will work on addressing health seekers' needs within the healthcare system, which will require you to apply the design thinking process \"Notice, Empathize, Define, Ideate, Prototype, Test, and Reflect\" to understand and clearly define the real (as opposed to the perceived) need, explore design options/concepts, analyze options, prototype your design, and pitch your design recommendation and implementation plan. Using project-based learning techniques, this experiential learning course will enable you to learn about a subject through the experience of exploring an open-ended, student-driven topic in healthcare delivery and patient-centered service experiences. Appropriate for graduate students in any discipline, through enhanced interdisciplinary group collaboration, you will build intellectual and practical skills in inquiry and analysis, critical and creative thinking, written and oral communication, teamwork, and problem solving.
