| (*)"This course aims to provide students with a comprehensive understanding of innovation processes and concepts. Working on cases from existing organizations, students will learn about the systemic approaches, to mapping and identiying possibilities for transformation by looking at their products, services and networks.
Furthermore, using design and artistics strategies students will gain hands on experience into two fundamental modes of transformation and innovation: affirmative and critical approaches, and understand each mode's implications and relevance for the context and goals of the project and organization. This will tranlsate in develloping the necessary skills to formulate interventions together with strategies for their implementation. As a result, the students will gain creative agency to envision design interventions, that can enact change and innovation. With a transdisciplinary/participatory approach, this course encourages students to think and actively work and envision how other fields can inform transformative and innovative efforts."

(*)Students will learn how to analyze organizations, so to identify possibilities for transformative change, by appliying systemic approaches to existing organisations - and more specifically their products, services and networks. Students can identify the system dynamics within organizations, relationships between organizations and their environment, and are able to formulate possibilities for action. Students will learn two artistic and design approaches to transformation and innovation: affirmative and critical, and understand each mode's implications and relevance. Moreover, students understand the relevance of other disciplines (e.g., art and design) for innovating and organizing.
