Description

This class will bolster a student’s ability to ask critical questions of themselves in their role as a designer when tackling complex social issues. Through in-depth class discussions and deep self-reflection, this class will provide intellectual rigor to the many conflicts of interests and perverse incentives that persist when designers enter the social sector.
