Meet the faculty behind TIE 234

The TIE Program is opening its doors for two sessions this week. If you are weighing up TIE 234 for the fall, or you registered and want a clearer picture of what the semester looks like, come and ask.

TIE 234, Design, Innovation and Impact, runs Tuesdays from September 1. Over one semester, students take a research insight, an emerging technology, or a problem worth solving and turn it into a tested, evidence-based concept. Teams work with real stakeholders, design experiments, gather evidence, and build a prototype.

What you can ask about

  • What a typical week looks like, in class and outside it
  • The kind of projects teams take on and how they are chosen
  • How the course fits alongside your research
  • Whether it counts toward your program requirements

Sessions

Dates: Wednesday, August 19 and Thursday, August 20
Time: 12:30 to 2:30 p.m.
Location: Building 2, Room 2290
Drop in, no registration required

Add and drop opens August 30 and runs to September 10. If you decide TIE 234 is for you, that is your window. Join the waitlist now and we will contact you first as places open.
