<span style="font-size:medium;large"><span style="font-family:georgia,serif;"><span id="docs-internal-guid-febb5ca1-430a-3284-cc5b-786dbfc50e56"><span style="vertical-alignMISSION AND VISION: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">The objective of this project is to spread awareness about entrepreneurship and innovation within the University of Fullerton. The innovation center will be high-tech space in which students from different majors will have the opportunity to collaborate and pitch projects they would like to work on. Every semester, there will be one project that will be chosen, and within the course of the semester, that project will become tangible. The project can range in size, but the focus will be creating an object or application that solves a problem within the community or within least developed countries. The innovation center will follow the model of design thinking.</span></span></span></span><span style="color: rgb(37, 37, 37); white-space: pre-wrap; font-family: georgia, serif; font-size: medium;">Through our research, we have found that the ideal location for the innovation center, would be a place that is located at the center of our campus. We have found that students often feel intimidated to go to departments that they are not familiar with.</span><div><br/></div>=== <span style="color:#ff8c00;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; white-space: pre-wrap; line-height: 1.15;">Design Thinking Process Stages:</span></span> ===
