Abstract
Product development requires both converging and diverging approaches for addressing complex problems and challenges. Teaching this methodology, and best practices have been successful in a studio and project-based pedagogy. Because of this specific type of teaching and learning environment, designers and engineers are able to work collaboratively while relying on a resilient design process. This design process relies on a human-centered philosophy that drives the intent, methodology, analysis, and contextual solutions.
