OpenIDEO Student Chapter at NYU-Poly The OpenIDEO Student Chapter was started in September 2011 to bring the concepts of design thinking and brainstorming to the Poly community.

The idea of involving students in the OpenIDEO community was floating around on the platform and we were inspired to be the first ones to start a university chapter. With the help of Professor Anne-Laure Fayard, our Advisor, we successfully launched the group with a workshop where students from Poly worked on a challenge sponsored by Amnesty International. We hold meetings every week where we brainstorm and design solutions together for the current social challenge on OpenIDEO. We also participate online and collaborate with a lot of great people from across the world.

General information

Over the last year, we've worked with sponsors like Amnesty International, the European Union, the State of California and many more, to solve problems that we, as a society, face together. We've also worked with the students and administration at NYU-Poly to redesign parts of the school in order to foster collaboration. For example, have you seen the seating outside the Dibner building? We're also helping in changing the Regna launge and creating a working-space (called the i2eGreenhouse) for students in the basement. These are some of the few ways that we are empowering students to discover and solve problems that they face, while at the same time enabling them to be creative. Check out the OpenIDEO platform. which is an online community of 36,00 people from across the world, coming together to solve global problems. You can also follow us on Twitter or like us on Facebook! You can join us for our weekly meetings on Friday at 4 p.m. It will be in the department of technology management, LC 401 in the 4th floor of the Dibner building. We are also going to have workshops at Poly soon so we'll keep you posted.
