RCA-Imperial design for global challenges summer school
Jump to
Engage with RCA and Imperial academics: 19 - 29 July 2024
Jointly delivered by the Royal College of Art and Imperial College London, the Design for Global Challenges Summer School is a multidisciplinary programme designed for undergraduate students currently studying at a university with an interest in learning how to tackle world challenges through service design.
The aim of the programme is to enable students to explore some of the current global challenges in climate change, global health, cyber security and propose an innovative idea to design a service that could tackle one of the areas.
In addition to the global challenges, students will gain an insight into data science, hear latest advances in robotics and meet some of our graduate entrepreneurs who are driving progress by launching their design innovations into the commercial world.
Students will develop personal and professional skills through interactive workshops in design thinking, team-building and presentation and experience team based learning through a service design group project.
Furthermore, as RCA and Imperial College London are multidisciplinary spaces for education, research, translation and commercialisation, the summer school students will experience the benefit of being part of a leading research community and the opportunity to engage with RCA and Imperial student ambassadors through social activities.
