Well-Being by Design: Human-Centered Approaches for Digital Health Applications

Are you passionate about research? Are you curious to learn more about evidence-based digital health solutions? This 80-hour course, spread over 3 weeks, aims to equip participants with techniques and theories to make decisions about relevant digital health interventions from a human-centered perspective.

You will work as a team and experience the process and mindset of Design Thinking as you design solutions to a complex problem. You will collaborate with our coaching team on how to translate these solutions into a real setting, working with a project partner.

 

Week 1: 2-6 September 2024
During the first week, we will have our introductory class where we discuss the preliminary project work. A commitment of 10 hours during this week is expected.

Week 2: 9-13 September 2024
During the second week, the first lecture period takes place from 09:00 - 16:00. Participants will learn how to use and apply theoretical concepts of human-centered design to identify needs and intentions in order to modify the choice environment of the user to influence their behavior towards the intended goal. At the end of each day, teams are expected to share their project findings and developments.

Week 3: 16-20 September 2024
During the third week, the lecture period takes place from 09:00 - 16:00. Teams will continue their project work and present their outcomes. Participants are expected to submit their documentation (Paper & One Pager).
