ÌÇÐÄTV

Join us for our final Global Partnership Scholars’ event: an interactive Design Thinking Workshop with a working lunch.

• Do you know what design thinking is?

• Do you understand how it might be beneficial?

• Do you want to enhance your skillset?

• Do you want to build on new and existing connections with other international scholars?

Simon Finley, Associate Director ÌÇÐÄTV Enterprise, will lead this workshop in which he will explain Design Thinking and then provide you with a problem solving challenge. You’ll work together with other scholars using the tools of design thinking to develop creative thinking and find solutions. It should be informative, fun and a worthwhile break away from your studies!

Whatever your career plans, this workshop will be a valuable addition to your personal toolkit.
