DI Student Fellows Program

The Design Innovation (DI) Fellows Program supports students by developing their collaborative innovation skills and empowering them to become leaders of meaningful, positive change. DI Fellows engage in a series of facilitated experiences, projects, and student-to-student learning opportunities that teach them how to embed design innovation into their daily lives and future careers.

The application deadline for acceptance into the program for the 2024-2025 academic year is August 1.

The primary goal of the DI Fellows Program is to promote diversity in teams (diversity of disciplines, demographics, thinking, and skills) as a powerful force for innovation and positive change. Students in the DI Fellows Program demonstrate this by using team-based human-centered-design processes and methods to tackle complex societal problems. By participating in this program students learn how to become effective collaborators and leaders, develop the ability to implement challenge-based innovation experiences and projects, and become ambassadors for cross-disciplinary innovation.
