Course Description
The InnovationSpace program provides senior-level students with a unique opportunity to complete
a real-world product-development project. Using the Integrated Innovation model, teams of top undergraduate students from business, engineering, product design and visual communication design spend two semesters researching, developing and refining product concepts. Their work includes
- exploring user, societal and environmental needs;
- analyzing market trends and consumer demand; and
- investigating new technologies.
All final products are accompanied by proof-of-concept and appearance models as well as New Innovation Proposals. These proposals summarize user research; present a product concept; detail engineering specifications; outline a product-communication strategy; and chart a comprehensive business plan.
If you want to:
- have an opportunity to contribute to a better society
- learn from top-performing students in other disciplines
- learn from top-notch faculty and real-world corporate mentors
- acquire valuable experience in crossfunctional teamwork
- gain a solid grounding in how to commercialize a product
then InnovationSpace is for you!
