Introduction

Design is a process of reaching a consensus. Stakeholders often face conflicting interests and values among diverse options. In this seminar-workshop formatted night course, we will explore methods for modeling, simulating, and analyzing collaborative decision-making in conceptual or real-world design challenges and beyond.

We learn together! You are encouraged to bring your own case studies and perspectives on any design topic. We will focus on leveraging your designer mindset with beginner-friendly technical topics, not jargon, so no prior technical experience is required.
