Our Pillars

Our Pillars

Workshops

Through low-stakes, intro-friendly workshops, we seek to create accessible learning opportunities for students to develop their knowledge in design history, the design process, emerging technologies, communication, and business.

Speaker Series

We aim to inspire members by exploring the endless possibilities of design and technology. Speakers help members discover diverse careers, embrace unique paths, and learn effective leadership strategies.

Hands-on projects

Students have the opportunity to join a semester-long project team, providing a supportive environment to apply their learning, deepen their understanding of interdisciplinary teamwork, and gain hands-on prototyping experience that might otherwise be inaccessible. More details to come soon :)

Curated Resources

We aim to promote inclusion in the design community by maintaining and compiling resources — a list of UW design/innovation course offerings, other university resources, and intro-friendly articles and news.
