Innovation Through Design: Think, Make, Break, Repeat Offered By The University of Sydney

Design has evolved into a field that is no longer limited to the concerns of a single, narrow domain, and has evolved into a path for tackling complicated, nonlinear problems. Design is evolving into a capability-enhancing skill, allowing people to cope with uncertainty, complexity, and failure.

In this course, you will learn how to use design as a way of thinking to get a strategic and inventive edge in your field. Over the course of 5 weeks, learners will investigate, apply, and practice the design process: think, make, break, and repeat. This course is suitable for anybody interested in design and converting the methods and tools of design thinking into innovative opportunities.

Learners will examine design as learning about the context (the thinking portion), constructing prototypes as concrete representations (the making part), and testing potential solutions by presenting theoretical concepts and examining industry case studies with renowned Australian design firms (the breaking part). Learners will elaborate on this by demonstrating the value of going rapidly and frequently through the process (the repeating phase) to refine ideas and discover new insights.

Throughout the course, you'll be taken on a tour of three of Australia's most fascinating design workplaces, where you'll learn from working designers and industry experts. This knowledge of the industry will allow you to have a thorough understanding of design and the role it can and does play in the innovation process. This course will provide you with a set of skills.
