Section Description

Stop guessing your future—design it. This winter, skip the typical lectures and use Stanford’s famous "design thinking" framework to build a blueprint for your college years and beyond. Whether you are stressed about picking a major, hunting for internships, or panicking about post-grad reality, this 1-credit course gives you a systematic way to figure it out. You will dismantle the myth of the "perfect career," sketch out three completely different five-year futures, and learn how to prototype your ideas before spending time and money on them. Leave the winter session with less anxiety, more clarity, and a concrete action plan for what comes next.

Section Expectation
