Design has many applications, and there are many tools that we can use to bring our designs to reality, but fundamentally, design is about thinking critically and analytically, and applying these practices methodically to solving a problem, i.e. Design Thinking!

At the North West Design Institute 

Our design curriculum is not designed to teach you the technical tools of designing, but rather to help you flex your critical and analytical abilities, and develop a design-oriented way of approaching problem solving.

There are no prerequisites to take any of the courses, and while it is possible to take the classes individually, they have been designed to be taken in sequence, starting with Design Thinking 101 and culminating with Anticipatory Design & Prototyping the Future, in order to build upon the practices learned in each course.
