Project Expoclose

The CS377E Final Project Fair will be held on 06/01/2016 from 12:30-2:20pm in the d.school's Studio 2.

Design Brief

CS377E focuses on bringing design thinking, processes, and tools to the refugee crisis. Students in the course will take on the challenge and apply this methodology to various aspects of the crisis ranging from aiding re-settled refugees to helping volunteers on the ground.

Partners

To enhance the needfinding process, teams will be paired with a non-profit partner: Disaster Tech Lab, East Bay Refugee Forum, UNHCR Hive, International Rescue Committee in San Jose, and Sea of Solidarity.

Prototype

Prototyping turns ideas into tangible forms that can be included or excluded in the next design iteration. Students in CS377E focus on improving their hi-fidelity protypes running on the target platform.
