This panel will review the ongoing development of an undergraduate course bringing together art, architecture, and engineering faculty to design and co-teach a course that deals with creativity, design, and making, titled “Making for the Masses.” Panelists will focus on aspects of design from across disciplines and in the larger world of making, especially as it relates to the democratization of design. Panelists will review how methodologies in design thinking are implemented through the curriculum.
