Design
thinking is recognized as a strong innovation driver within many professions.
In a fast-moving world we increasingly face new challenges that demand
radically alternative ways of thinking and doing. Nordic countries have strong
design, innovation and organizational traditions. Nordic design is
characterised by minimalist solutions with natural materials and rich
experience, collaborative design processes and inclusive decision making. New
Nordic Design Thinking helps identify and solve such challenges where solutions
require that multiple sciences work together, and where many different people
are involved: citizens, specialists, organizations, businesses, administrators,
policy makers etc.
In the talent programme you get to experience such processes and collaborate with students across the natural sciences, health, engineering, business and humanities. This is what it takes to make your science matter in society. Become a talented, visionary, high achiever who wants to make a difference!
SDU Design has a unique approach to New Nordic Design Thinking. We integrate Design Cultures, Participatory Innovation and Design Management research. You get to work with experienced professors and live cases to investigate the ‘Nordic’ of ‘Design Thinking’ in a truly cross-disciplinary environment. You will be able to map back what you learn to your main study discipline as practice in action.
