Idea Development with Design Thinking: theme of the MUnIE workshop

The Euromed School of Biomedical Engineering BiomedTech (EIB) and the Euromed Institute of Technology (EIT) are organizing on January 12, 13, 14 and January 19 and 20, 2021 with their German partner, the University of Koblenz-Landau, an online workshop on design thinking under the theme “Idea Development with Design Thinking”, accessible from this link.

Indeed, the project-based learning culture, continuous innovation and action-research constitute one of the major pillars of Euromed University of Fes which aims to train future leaders endowed with critical and constructive thinking. In this context, it becomes necessary to develop a co-creative mindset that involves implementing a global collaborative design approach calling on techniques and methods as diverse as design thinking, brainstorming, brainwriting or even speedstorming.

These methods and tools will be presented during the workshop to participants who will work in teams on various projects using these instructive techniques which, later complemented by physical business modeling spaces, will de facto stimulate innovation through ideation, pretotyping and prototyping using ad hoc processes.

Ultimately, collaboration with the University of Koblenz-Landau will broadly allow UEMF to experiment with new modes and methods of operation.
