About the Course
Eat.Think.Design. is the only course in the country that teaches systematic innovation and human-centered design in a public health context. Student teams work on design projects for real clients at the intersection of food, innovation, and health. Each year, 25 students from a dozen different graduate programs come together to learn about the innovation process through these projects. Students with and without a professional focus on food and food systems are encouraged to apply. More than 50% of our 150 course alumni dating back to 2011 have come from programs outside of the School of Public Health.
