CSI's d.Studio
Ideas Take Shape Here
Find Creative Teaching, Tools for Action, and Student-Centered Innovation
We're thrilled to invite you to join us in CSI’s d.Studio—a dynamic, flexible space in Hepworth Room 139 designed especially for faculty to experiment, collaborate, and transform teaching practices through the power of design thinking.
Born from our team’s immersive training with Stanford’s prestigious d.school, the d.Studio brings the spirit of innovation home to CSI. Come and see how this is so much more than a room—it’s a mindset and a movement toward empathetic, iterative, and impactful teaching.
