UZH Innovathon: The Digitalization of Mobility (10SMSTS-106)
Description
This transdisciplinary course equips students with innovation skills through structured, hands-on problem-solving techniques. Innovation is essential for developed economies like Switzerland to sustain their international standing and economic wellbeing.
Students learn how to approach problems creatively, collaborate across disciplines, and develop impactful solutions. Working with practice partners, students tackle real-world challenges, contributing directly to solving these.
The area of focus is the digitalization of mobility — an area where innovation e.g., clean, autonomous systems or seamless public transport can address societal needs and sustainability goals e.g., by reducing environmental impacts or enhancing inclusivity. The course begins with input from lecturers across various disciplines, offering diverse perspectives to build a strong foundation for understanding and innovation. Then, students engage in doing: developing actionable solutions which eventually may be implemented by industry partners.
