Do you want to design the future yourself?

Then the minor Future Design Playground is the minor for you! Together with our involved partners you will develop visions and solutions for the year 2050. Our unique method of Future Design will turn you into a real "future designer".  You will learn to understand the complexity of "wicked problems" and discover the interests of all stakeholders. You'll implement global megatrends to create visions of the future that form the basis for tomorrow's changes.

Minor content

Every student within FDP has a unique background and perspective. Coming from all fields of study and from all over the world, they form an extraordinary multidisciplinary community. With them, you design prototypes to test your vision and create real value for people, for communities and for society. For now until 2050.

You will be able to contribute to the following themes over the next two years:

  • Future of E- Health / healthcare delivery in our region.
  • Future of regional and sustainable agriculture
  • Future of biodiversity in Friesland
  • Future of broad prosperity in Friesland

"The future is not something we enter. The future is something we create." - Leonard I. Sweet

Please contribute! You are most welcome.

The minor in Future Design Playground is offered by the study program Communication and Multimedia Design.

 

Structure of the minor

We have developed our own method of future design that is unique for NHL Stenden University. In six very clear steps we will guide you through the future design process. Every step will be supported by workshops, input by specialists, personal mindset research and experiments. And of cause everything that you can invent, design or imagine. After all, we are a playground! We will use design research to deeply understand all aspects and connections of future problems. We will work in groups on the four themes, but we will also envision the future and ideate and prototype with the whole group.
