miami design collabora8ve… what is it?
The Miami Design Collabora8ve is a mul8‐disciplinary design ini8a8ve at Miami University that brings together students and faculty from throughout campus to develop exper8se in design thinking and to implement that knowledge through complex, team‐based, problem‐solving experiences. Design‐based experiences cluster together under one umbrella to posi8on, promote and clarify rela8onships and opportuni8es both on‐campus and beyond. MDC integrates faculty and students in every academic division into a “networked” curriculum that will offer a cer8ficate program that complements a student’s major. Students:

armstrong interac8ve dublin: summer 08
Armstrong Interac8ve, another of the Miami Design Collabora8ve curricular offerings, is a client‐based capstone course which goes interna8onal each summer, most recently in Shanghai and Dublin. A recent client wrote “This class has met and exceeded all my expecta8ons for ‘redefining’ our corporate image. I would put the work your class produced for us up against any agency and know you would equal and probably surpass many.” The images represent parts of the Dublin project: to create an interac8ve career planner. The workshop was led by Glenn PlaY, Jim Coyle, Peg Faimon and Ira Greenberg.

mobile italy: summer 09
During this workshop students ac8vely par8cipated in documen8ng a culture of design in mid‐northern Italy. During the course of the four‐week summer term digital and analogue documents, s8ll and mo8on media, and collected cultural ar8facts will be combined to study the Italian design culture as evidenced through its people, arts, architecture, history, and culture. Students used the latest popular micro mobile media devices and millennia old means of expression to design interdisciplinary solu8ons to design problems. A primary goal
reconsider themselves, and how this is captured and propagated with contemporary media. Workshop leaders were Sam Perkins and John Humphries.
