Mission
Design For America x CMU is a group of interdisciplinary students who use their unique design, engineering, and social sciences perspectives to confront social issues in innovative ways.

├ó╦£ÔǪ As a chapter of national DFA, we├é┬áuse the├é┬áhuman centered design process├é┬áto├é┬áempathize and work with our users├é┬áas we research, ideate, prototype, test and develop solutions.

├ó╦£ÔǪ We├é┬ácollaborate in teams of students with diverse backgrounds and interests to├é┬ádevelop well-rounded solutions and fuse collaboration, leadership, and creativity.

├ó╦£ÔǪ Student-led teams├é┬ápartner closely with├é┬álocal community organizations├é┬áto identify challenging social issues to design and develop comprehensive solutions that benefit the broader community.
