Design Thinking is an action-oriented approach to creating solutions. Over the course of the semester, students will define, ideate and prototype solutions to enhance the patient experience. In addition to learning and participating in the process of design thinking, students will practice the design thinking mindsets of empathy, collaboration, optimism, embracing failure, creative confidence, and a bias toward action. The course will be teamwork-oriented, but students will also complete readings and independent activities that support the group work and ensure individual knowledge.
