65326	Online	HFD	2:00PM -3:20PM	TR	n.a.	Gorsuch, A	Part of Term: 1 Date Range: 01/25/21-05/05/21 Credit: 3 hours Section Title: Hacking for Defense Section Info: In a crisis, national security initiatives move at the speed of a startup yet in peacetime they default to decades-long acquisition and procurement cycles. Startups operate with continual speed and urgency 24/7. Over the last few years they’ve learned how to be not only fast, but extremely efficient with resources and time using lean startup methodologies. In this class student teams will take actual national security problems and learn how to apply “Lean Startup” principles, ("business model canvas," "customer development," and "agile engineering”) to discover and validate customer needs and to continually build iterative prototypes to test whether they understood the problem and solution. Teams take a hands-on approach requiring close engagement with actual military, Department of Defense and other government agency end-users. Team applications required. Limited enrollment. Graduate and undergraduate students may apply. This course will be delivered via Compass 2g. To apply, submit an application at go.illinois.edu/h4d.

Using the Siebel Center for Design’s human-centered design taxonomy, students will develop a semester-long project to research and prototype UI/UX design solutions. Students will learn methods to perform initial research and project scoping, conduct interviews, create journey maps and wireframes, iteratively test prototypes, and hone their storytelling skills among other UX industry practices. Email designcenter@illinois.edu for more information. Course is being delivered via Moodle. Restriction(s): Restricted to Undergrad - Urbana-Champaign.
