Strategic design
7,5 credits, course, master's level, D7030A
Spring 2027
Application period starts 2026-09-15
Learn to use design as a strategic force for change. In this course, you will develop tools to create value, lead transformation, and drive sustainable innovation in organizations and society.
The course addresses design leadership, measuring design value, stakeholder analysis, and strategic communication. You will also work with visual language and brand identities as support for long-term design management.
Through a project case, you will apply strategic design in a real or simulated transformation process, using methods such as storytelling and facilitation to drive change. The course provides a deep understanding of design as a transformative force — with the potential to create social, ecological, democratic, and economic value.
