Design Thinking as Problem-Solving Strategy

Design thinking isn't about artistic talent—it's a flexible, systematic approach to problem-solving applicable across industries. This course introduces the foundational activities: understanding the problem deeply, generating ideas centered on user needs, and iterating toward solutions that are desirable, feasible, and viable all at once.

Part of the Design Thinking MicroMasters, this course equips you with both mindset and methods. You'll learn to ask better questions, validate assumptions with users, and move from problem identification to innovative solutions.
