Over 7 weeks in Spring '22, we met with more than 300 students and a wide range of faculty and staff to better understand the undergraduate student experience.
Student insights and observations were then translated into a set of 8 actionable instructions for design, crafted through engagements with students, faculty, staff, leadership, and stakeholder teams.
In Fall '22 we embarked on another 7-week design sprint to co-design a "beacon project"— a tangible expression of what could be, based on student needs.
This research and design resulted in recommendations to build a foundation for future collaborative projects that improve the student experience, and a toolkit that is informing a variety of student-centered initiatives, services, and solutions at NYU.
