Learn the fundamentals of design thinking and build solutions that have an impact.

Program Highlights

Product development and design provide students with a toolkit to identify, examine, and address complex problems. Rooted in a flexible and collaborative practice known as iterative design, students from all disciplines and professional backgrounds learn how to build solutions that surpass client and stakeholder expectations. The iterative design process is universal, and students will graduate from this certificate program with the ability to view products, services, and society from a multifaceted perspective.
