The Innovation Fellows
Innovation Fellows are graduate students and staff from any unit or department at the University of Maryland diving into innovation mindsets, tools, and processes relevant to their professional, academic, and personal lives. Fellows participate in either of these semester-long offerings: Becoming a Design Thinker (BADT) or Design Thinking Project Studio (DTPS).
