Why did you choose MD+I?

MDI could professionalize my design skills and provide plenty of opportunities for me to work on real-world projects.

What is your favorite part of MD+I so far?

I like how MDI implants Design Thinking into every class and practices in different projects. For one, we went through the design thinking process to complete the urban planning project. For another, we built a physical prototype from scratch to hone prototyping skills as one of the design thinking techniques.

What kinds of professional and personal trajectories are you setting for yourself at the moment? Where do you hope to go after graduation?

I plan to be a UX designer in software as a service (SaaS) industry.
