Our goal is to create engaging and thought-provoking experiences for student designers at various stages of their learning journeys. Through our programs, we provide experience and mentorship to prepare student designers for internships and beyond.
We conduct semester-long UI/UX projects that aim to innovate upon existing designs. These projects provide our members with an opportunity to question how things can be improved and to thoughtfully inject their own creative processes into some of their favorite products.
Through our project teams, members can build upon their pre-existing skills through interactive teamwork, research, and design sessions. This process will help members learn to adapt their framework and thinking to fit the needs of their users.
At the end of the semester, each member of the project team will have a powerful and compelling portfolio piece to showcase their work.

New to design? No worries!
DI Academy is a semester long program that allows inquiring students to learn about the fundamentals of design thinking along with the actual process of going from research to prototype. Throughout these lessons, students will get to practice these techniques alongside their peers in the forms of take home assignments and a semester-long mini redesign project.
DI Academy is only offered during the Fall!
