COVID pushed companies to adopt digital tools to face pandemic disruption, creating a new normal no one can escape. However, many companies just went on using the same processes with digital tools, keeping the same old processes, failing to create new value for the company.
This combination of events created a fantastic opportunity for Digital Transformation (DT), and companies are now hiring fresh talent to make it happen.
This course aims to prepare you to be an active member of a Digital Transformation team by providing a hands-on approach, combining Design Thinking methodologies with the knowledge of the technologies available and their potential to create value for the company.
The teaching approach challenges the students to deal with a real-world case, applying a stepwise approach and providing experiential design thinking tools to deal with it, pushing students to learn by doing. All assignments are part of the final project, thus allowing the students to work on the project from the first day of the course.
