'''Overview'''

Nadia is a senior majoring in Interior Architecture at the School of Human Ecology, and she is interested in sustainable and well-being design within interiors. She began her college career as a psychology major at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign on track to fulfill the courses to go to medical school. After shadowing doctors, she realized that her passions lie in a place where psychology and design intersect. This lead to her pursuing interior architecture at the University of Wisconsin-Madison.

She enjoysusing her creative side to conquer challenges, and the design thinking process aligns well with the way she thinks and works. She looks forward to seeing how the UW University Innovation Fellows will learn from mistakes and push boundaries to create innovative solutions that will help the UW Madison student population.

=== Description ===



This is a campaign that begins at the start of every semester. To begin, there will be a large campaign to make students aware of our social media presence, Instagram . This will include being active at SOAR and other student centered events as well as giving out some merchandise and flyers that students could reference. The main purpose of the Instagram page is for students to submit their own or others creative works. These works should include class doodles, interesting course work, drawings from study notes, written works, graffiti on campus, food dishes, and more! The objective is to show different perspectives of creativity, not necessarily the skills behind it. Through showing diverse works, students will gain creative confidence by seeing that someone has liked their work, or someone has decided to post their it on social media. On top of student submitted work, there will also be general posts promoting positivity. Students of all disciplines are encouraged to send their post. Once students send in their first posts, they will receive a sticker that has the campaign name on it. 

==
To carry the campaign throughout the semester, there will be cork boards in every college in the building that are dedicated to the campaign. There will be a sign that has the campaign name on it and students are welcome to share their class doodles by physically posting them onto the boards. This will create a sense of community among the people in the building as well as instill confidence in the students who post because they’re able to share their work.

== Faculty Innovation and Entrepreneurship ==

University faculty have always had a long history of innovation and entrepreneurship, from the [https://stemcells.wisc.edu/node/85 <span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: rgb(0, 51, 153); font-weight: 700; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; text-decoration-line: underline; text-decoration-skip-ink: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">discovery of the stem cell] to being ranked high in the list of [http://news.wisc.edu/uw-madison-ranked-highly-in-list-of-universities-that-produce-top-ceos/ <span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: rgb(0, 51, 153); font-weight: 700; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; text-decoration-line: underline; text-decoration-skip-ink: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">universities that produce top CEOs]. UW - Madison faculty consistently show that they are committed to the Wisconsin Idea - perpetuating the use of education for public good inside and outside the classroom. This can also be seen in the wide range of courses that incorporate innovation, entrepreneurship, and design thinking. Arguably the entire campus, ranging from the College of Engineering to the School of Human Ecology, is invested in educating students in innovation and design thinking.

== University - Industry Collaboration ==

The University of Wisconsin - Madison maintains strong ties to both local and international businesses. As the major college in the very loyal state of Wisconsin, the university is a sought after collaborator for numerous industries.[https://ocr.wisc.edu <span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: rgb(0, 51, 153); font-weight: 700; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; text-decoration-line: underline; text-decoration-skip-ink: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">The Office of Corporate Relations (OCR)] works to understand unique business needs and connect businesses with the resources, expertise, and cutting-edge technology available at the university as well as inviting industry professionals to campus to boost company presence. Because [http://www.gener8tor.com <span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: rgb(0, 51, 153); font-weight: 700; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; text-decoration-line: underline; text-decoration-skip-ink: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">gener8tor], a nationally-ranked accelerator, is just down the road from campus, there is an increasing synergy between entrepreneurial-minded students and the company’s programs.

This fosters job growth in the community and makes it easier for UW system students to network with local businesses. This system is one of Wisconsin's largest economic development assets and proves very useful to the students and surrounding businesses.

== Faculty Innovation and Entrepreneurship ==

University faculty have always had a long history of innovation and entrepreneurship, from the [https://stemcells.wisc.edu/node/85 <span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: rgb(0, 51, 153); font-weight: 700; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; text-decoration-line: underline; text-decoration-skip-ink: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">discovery of the stem cell] to being ranked high in the list of [http://news.wisc.edu/uw-madison-ranked-highly-in-list-of-universities-that-produce-top-ceos/ <span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: rgb(0, 51, 153); font-weight: 700; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; text-decoration-line: underline; text-decoration-skip-ink: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">universities that produce top CEOs]. UW - Madison faculty consistently show that they are committed to the Wisconsin Idea - perpetuating the use of education for public good inside and outside the classroom. This can also be seen in the wide range of courses that incorporate innovation, entrepreneurship, and design thinking. Arguably the entire campus, ranging from the College of Engineering to the School of Human Ecology, is invested in educating students in innovation and design thinking.

== Faculty Innovation and Entrepreneurship ==

University faculty have always had a long history of innovation and entrepreneurship, from the [https://stemcells.wisc.edu/node/85 <span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: rgb(0, 51, 153); font-weight: 700; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; text-decoration-line: underline; text-decoration-skip-ink: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">discovery of the stem cell] to being ranked high in the list of [http://news.wisc.edu/uw-madison-ranked-highly-in-list-of-universities-that-produce-top-ceos/ <span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: rgb(0, 51, 153); font-weight: 700; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; text-decoration-line: underline; text-decoration-skip-ink: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">universities that produce top CEOs]. UW - Madison faculty consistently show that they are committed to the Wisconsin Idea - perpetuating the use of education for public good inside and outside the classroom. This can also be seen in the wide range of courses that incorporate innovation, entrepreneurship, and design thinking. Arguably the entire campus, ranging from the College of Engineering to the School of Human Ecology, is invested in educating students in innovation and design thinking.

== University Technology Transfer Function ==

Although UW does not have an office to directly address Technology Transfers, the [http://www.warf.org/ Wisconsin Alumni Research Foundation] offers aid in licensing technologies and the [https://ocr.wisc.edu/technology-transfer Office of Corporate Relations] suggests working through their offerings.

== University - Industry Collaboration ==

Undergraduate students also have the opportunity to work in collaboration with companies and nonprofit organizations in the classroom to solve respective problems commonly referred to as experiential learning or high impact practice.

== Regional and Local Economic Development ==

[https://www.wisconsin.edu/offices/office-of-university-relations/economic-development/ The Office of Economic Development] offers a connection between local industry and the innovative spirit and entrepreneurial energy of the UW school system. This fosters job growth in the community and makes it easier for UW system students to network with local businesses. This system is one of Wisconsin's largest economic development assests and proves very useful to the students and surrounding businesses.

Hi! My name is Nadia Tahir. I am a senior studying Interior Architecture in the School of Human Ecology at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. I am a University Innovation Fellow, in training, ready to take on the challenge of helping better my university. I was introduced to design thinking last summer so I have been interested in applying it to more things since. I am excited that I get to apply it in such an impactful way to benefit future students and educators.
