FYXP 2200: Design Thinking Seminar

Our Design Thinking Seminar introduces students to the principles of the design thinking framework and its application toward solution development and personal brand building. Through this course, living learning community residents will build relationships and design their own path in highly interactive and hands-on sessions to develop their own story, understand community needs, and create tangible solutions. Students will acquire a strong understanding of the design thinking framework, a deeper sense of their personal passions, and tools to craft their own path at CU and beyond.
