CCT is a course designed for the development of critical and creative thinking skills among
students. It uses the design thinking process as a platform for meaningful and effective
innovation and entrepreneurship. CCT is offered as a 2 unit course (1 unit lecture and 1 unit
laboratory (innovation lab) that guides students in the exercise of CCT as they pursue
specific problem solutions over the regular 18-week semester.
The University in addition to promoting the university for people and nature, now focuses its
efforts on developing graduates to become innovators and entrepreneurs. CCT and
Entrepreneurship course responds to this call and is inspired by the departure from the usual
notion that graduates are designed to be employed. Rather, graduates must equally be
prepared to become employers themselves and contribute to the alleviation of unemployment
and poverty.

LEARNING CONTENT
Social Innovation
Social Innovation is about creating solutions that addresses the user’s needs. You cannot serve the
community to improve their lives if you do not understand them and work together with them. The
key words here is working WITH the community, immersing yourselves into the lives of the
community to understand what is needed.
The innovation space is built from the four process elements: Critical thinking, Creativity,
and Design. The design process serves as a platform for critique and value creation that yields
to innovation.
