CORPORATE GURUKUL LAUNCHES GRIP IN UAE
November 12th, 2018
Corporate Gurukul is proud to announce the launch of our flagship programme – Global Research Immersion Programme (GRIP) is UAE. GRIP is conducted in association with faculty from the National University of Singapore (NUS) and Nanyang Technological University (NTU), Singapore.
The Global Research and Innovation Programme (GRIP) enables participants to identify and solve real-world problems using a unique methodology – Design Thinking.
Participants conduct empathy-led primary research, define the problem, and evolve innovative solution(s). Through GRIP, you will learn how to approach problems from different perspectives with a view to creating solutions. Your approach needs to be inter-disciplinary and aimed at creating prototypes that are user friendly and can be commercialized. If the solution is unique, participants can apply and get their idea patented while still in school!
The programme culminated successfully through research project presentations and evaluation at the National University of Singapore!
The projects included - Improving Work-Life Balance, Reducing Student Stress, Solving Parking Problems in Dubai, Curtailing Road Rage and Improving Road Safety!
The innovative solutions will surely go a long way in solving the world's problems. Hearty congratulations to all participants, their mentors, Design Thinking Experts, parents and faculty from NUS and NTU for the great feedback and learning over the last 6 months on research projects!
Corporate Gurukul wishes all participants an awesome career ahead! May the almighty bless you with all the strength to follow your passion!
