Play Orbit's +Impact Studio is named one of “The Most Interesting New MBA Courses”

Play Orbit designed a course that brings a systems approach to human-centered design and a space where multidisciplinary teams led by business professors can address wicked problems.

Play Orbit designed a course that brings a systems approach to human-centered design and a space where multidisciplinary teams led by business professors can address wicked problems.

The +Impact Studio, created by Play Orbit for the University of Michigan Ross School of Business, was recently included in Poets and Quants as “The Most Interesting New MBA Courses at Business Schools This Year.”

Thanks again to Assistant Dean Jerry Davis for the opportunity to help Ross in their mission to use business to make a positive difference in the world. That’s what Design is for!

Here’s a video of Jerry introducing the studio

Play Orbit designed a new space and course for the ideas and research being developed at Ross to address the wicked problems of our world. It is a space, an action-based learning course, and a campus hub for programming and events. Learn more about this project.

Jerry Davis is amazing! We were honored to be asked to work with him to create the +Impact Studio program, course, and interior design. These clips are from our winter 2018-19 prototype semester, which helped us improve both the content of the final course and our design of the actual studio space inside Ross.

The Studio will have its grand opening in the Fall of 2019 where the first full cohort (20+ students) will follow the systems + human-centered design approach to address wicked problems and making +impact!
