Focuses on understanding when the CPS approach can be used successfully and how the progression from one stage of CPS to the other can be altered depending on our goals and needs. Learn various creative thinking heuristics used to define problems, generate ideas, and develop solutions; apply the heuristics to solve ill-defined, complex problems in a collaborative setting.
