Design thinking: a good way to approach doing something brand new.

Career exploration and career building is a long process. Sometimes you want more information and options, sometimes you want less info, and really want to dig deep and test out your options. Sometimes you want to brainstorm on your own, and other times, you want feedback and input from people with different experiences. Sometimes you may feel free to ideate and come up with creative ideas, and in others, you might feel stuck.

Design thinking, a set of principles, approaches, and tools used by designers to deal with frustrating, constantly evolving, or even unsolvable problems, can.
Designers have a host of tools to help them get 鈥渦nstuck.鈥 In the Undergrad Hive we will be working 鈥渓ike designers鈥 in a closed group of your peers to:

鈥⑻ reframe dysfunctional beliefs about career paths
鈥⑻ free up your mind to articulate your wildest life dreams and take them all seriously
鈥⑻ be curious and build strategies for exploring opportunities
鈥⑻ brainstorm for ways to try out and prototype careers
鈥⑻ collaborate: create community with other undergraduate students who are all trying to do the same thing 鈥 to design a life that makes them happy

One of the most important threads of the four-workshop program is collecting clues: we will be working together, individually and in our groups, to explore career paths and ourselves. Throughout the Undergrad Hive, we will be collecting clues about our personality, skills, interests, and values: all essential components of life design and career exploration.
