Everything in our lives was designed by someone, and every design starts with a problem that a designer seeks to solve. The same design thinking responsible for amazing technology, products, and spaces can be used to design and build your career and your life - a life of fulfillment and joy, constantly creative and productive, one that always holds the possibility of surprise. Join Dave Evans, co-author of "Designing Your Life: How to Build a Well-Lived, Joyous Life," for a special seminar just for postdocs and graduate students.
