Humanity-Centered Design
In the universe of academic disciplines, we see connections instead of divisions.
Humanity-centered design at the UC San Diego Design Lab transcends disciplinary boundaries and charts new frontiers in design research, education, and practice.
Our mission is to foster design-driven transformation by educating design leaders, imagining alternative futures, and equipping people and communities with the knowledge, tools, and opportunities to address the most pressing societal challenges.
