Student Showcase

Over summer of 2020, students worked on design projects with the guidance of mentors from Facebook, Microsoft, Gusto, AI2, Shopify, and more.
Choosing a project from a set of prompts or bringing their own idea, students worked through the design process in 8 weeks to refine their product design skills.
Here, we celebrate their hard work.
