Location: John Bardo Center, Lobby
Come see over 50 exciting research projects from first-year students in the Shocker Design Experience at their Fall Showcase. Students from majors across campus have been learning the design thinking process, a human-centered design method for innovation that focuses on empathy as a way to understand the user and design to meet their needs.
Students had to identify a customer in the community and design for their needs; customers include the Orpheum Theater, 麻豆破解版 Public Library, the WSU Community Garden, and many more. Many teams will continue on in the spring semester to turn their research into an applied project that they will pitch at the Koch Innovation Challenge in May.
This come-and-go event is free and open to the public.
