How can you support the RDC? Get Involved

We foster design-thinking and entrepreneurial innovation. Our staff and faculty rely on students, lab users, volunteers, and community members to bring this vision to life. Consider giving to the RDC’s ongoing needs via time, materials, equipment, and/or financial donations to inspire others to discover the power of design thinking.
