Innovation by Design
Prof. B.K. Chakravarthy · IIT Bombay
About
In today's world, there are so many challenges and problems that needs to be addressed. In this situation, innovation is what provides the solution that will benefit the maximum number of users. And such innovation is often enabled by design. This course familiarizes you with the concept of "innovation" and the journey of a design idea from the identification of a problem to a final solution that has a positive impact on a large community of users. Through case studies that focus on the "seven concerns of innovation", you learn how the innovation process requires empathy, meticulous effort, constant user interaction and effective collaboration.
