INNOV 411Designing for Social Impact

This course will focus on the design and implementation of a response to the problem defined in INNOV 311. This will be done by working with students in teams and individually to design, test and build viable and impactful social innovation responses in iterations. Success in the course will not be tied exclusively to the successful launching of the initiatives themselves. Rather, the students will also be evaluated on the actual process of designing and testing the initiative and on how this process is articulated in reports and presentations to relevant stakeholders.
