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
