Research and Other Practices are carried out across MSFEA by approaching MSFEA research projects using collaborative design methods and providing design training and capacity building for faculty and staff. IDPP also engages with campus-wide research projects using collaborative design methods and developing AUB staff's talent to tackle organizational challenges and instill change using design tools and mindsets.
The program is also interested in contributing to the Community at large, by becoming the national and regional design thinking and experiential learning consulting arm for the public, private and third sectors.
