Erasmus Blended Intensive Program (BIP) at CODE of Applied Sciences, Berlin
Before the start of the M2.2. semester, I had the opportunity to take part in an Erasmus blended intensive program. Alongside a team, we delved into the theme of “Design for Humanity,” employing a more-than-human design methodology and reflecting on emerging technologies through the lens of spirituality. This created a deep-dive into emerging technologies and helped me to broaden my understanding of user needs in a complex society.
