Center for Socially Engaged Design, University of Michigan
C-SED is hiring! https://csed.engin.umich.edu/jobs/ OUR APPROACH: Socially Engaged Design is human(ity) centered – not just user centered. We consider broad contexts through an equity-centered lens that impact the practice of engineering, including social, cultural, political, economic, and environmental factors that can completely change the design of solutions. Further, we push designers to analyze how their own identities and cultural context shape their approach. ABOUT C-SED: The Center for Socially Engaged Design uses evidence-based pedagogical methods in an adaptable, curated, customizable curriculum that integrates learning and practice experiences to meet each designer where they are on their design journey. Our goal is that all students leave Michigan with the demonstrated skills to design equitable solutions in partnership with diverse communities of stakeholders.
