This course equips students with the methods and mindsets of strategic foresight—the ability to anticipate, analyze, and design for emerging technologies and societal trends shaping the future of user experience. Students will learn to identify weak signals, map potential futures, and create speculative design artifacts that inform long-term product and service strategy. The course develops adaptive thinking, storytelling, and communication skills that prepare graduates for leadership roles at the intersection of design, innovation, and technology.
