Welcome!

This advanced studio investigates the power of products, systems and services to create positive social and environmental change. This semester, as social entrepreneurial designers, students will have the opportunity to work with EARTH University in Costa Rica. EARTH is at the forefront of identifying, testing and sharing techniques for sustainable agriculture in the tropics. Students enrolled in this course will investigate new uses for agricultural wastes and natural materials and develop in-depth proposals for the creation of new products that will benefit EARTH and its local and global communities.

During the 2011 spring semester break this studio will travel to EARTH University in Costa Rica to observe, collaborate with and present project concepts to the EARTH Community.
