Course Overview
Design thinking is applied to strategy and innovation and is concerned with solving problems through synthesis. It allows work on many possible solutions at once, breaking down complex issues into tangible ones that can be analyzed and solved.This method enables consideration of the problem from a variety of perspectives and speculates on both the past and future of the situation.
