Moura is looking for a TA for the Wednesday section of the undergraduate d.studio class this Fall. As the business environment becomes more unpredictable, organizations will demand leaders who are capable of making the most of the opportunity. Leadership will increasingly mean being comfortable managing and motivating diverse teams of creative people. Truly innovative, disruptive technologies and processes will be needed to address the world’s problems. The course will challenge teams of students to deliver real-world solutions that create economic, social, and environmental value using strategic design.
The course provides students with a strategic design process and techniques tool-kit. Design tools and processes, used for decades in industry and manufacturing, offer proven, alternative approaches for managing today’s most challenging business problems. Part creative ideation, part critical analysis, and part innovative thinking for new ways of using existing information and systems, design processes and thinking strategies will become an essential tool for doing business better.

Please email Moura with a short resume if you are interested.
