DESIGN TEAMS PROGRAM

The Design Teams Program is a semester-long program where interdisciplinary groups of students collaborate to solve real challenges presented by community and industry partners.

Guided by Studio staff and professional mentors, teams use human-centered design to research, prototype, and test innovative solutions. The experience not only delivers fresh ideas and actionable insights for partners but also gives students the chance to build practical skills, work across disciplines, and create meaningful impact beyond the classroom.

HACKATHON/DESIGN SPRINT

In addition to our semester-long programs, the Studio hosts short, high-energy innovation experiences where students can dive into real challenges in just a day or a weekend. Hackathons and design sprints give participants a fast-paced introduction to human-centered design, rapid prototyping, and creative problem-solving. These events are a great way to test ideas, meet collaborators, and experience the Studio before committing to a longer program.
