About

The Solving Complex Problems - Structured Thinking, Design Principles, and AI course offered by Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) will help you acquire core principles that will change the way you approach and solve large-scale challenges, increasing your likelihood of success.

Overview

What you will study

  • The Solving Complex Problems - Structured Thinking, Design Principles, and AI course offered by Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) will will help you explore proven design principles, heuristic-based insights, and problem-solving approaches, and learn how to persuasively present concepts and system architectures to stakeholders. 
  • Methods utilize recent developments in AI and Big Data, as well as innovative strategies from MIT Lincoln Laboratory that have been successfully applied to large and complex national defense systems.
  • By taking part in interactive lectures and hands-on projects, you will learn to think through and leverage important steps, including problem abstraction, idea generation, concept development and refinement, system-level thinking, and proposal generation. 
  • Alongside an accomplished group of global peers, you will explore the strategies and frameworks you need to implement large-scale systems that can have a significant positive impact—and minimize the probability of failure.

Programme Structure

The program focuses on:

  • complex problems
  • end-to-end processes and associated challenges
  • developing more complex systems
  • effective problem-solving techniques
  • abstracting the problem, idea generation, concept development and refinement, system-level thinking, and proposal generation
  • system-level thinking skills
  • evaluate, refine, down select, and evaluate best ideas and concepts
  • the Axiomatic Design methodology
  • applications in manufacturing, product design, software, and architecture
  • generate and present proposals that clearly articulate innovative ideas, clarify the limits of current strategies, define potential customers and impact, and outline a success-oriented system development and risk mitigation plan
  • communicate ideas and persuade others, and provide valuable feedback
  • develop and execute large-scale system concepts that will drive significant positive impact
