Meet the ten d.school fellows for 2015-16! Project fellows are early- to mid-career professionals who are growing creative organizations to accelerate systems-level impact in their areas of expertise. This academic year, we welcome seven project fellows focused on one of two areas, K12 education and civic innovation. The d.school project fellows are Ashanti Branch, Will Byrne, Patrick Cook-Deegan, Lauren Hancock, Rita Nguyen, Chris Rudd and Jill Vialet.

Teaching fellows are professional designers and design educators who will spend a full year at the d.school to grow their expertise in experiential teaching and contribute to the d.school’s efforts to advance our curriculum. Based on their vast experiences in the design world, they will develop new methods, experiences, and courses, and will be key members on a number of our internal initiatives. The d.school teaching fellows are Hannah Jones, Nihir Shah and Andrea Small.
