Service Design (SD) can be described as “the activity of planning and organizing people, infrastructure, communication and material components of a service in order to improve its quality and the interaction between service provider and customers” (Wikipedia, accessed 19.11.2012). Whilst the idea of service design has a separate history, much work in the field today is highly interdisciplinary takes place with an eye towards rich and continuous stakeholder engagement as well as user or customer experience.

| Description of the teaching methods | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| First and foremost, the course is intended as a
practical and industry-relevant design course. Thus, students must,
within the first 2 weeks establish contact with a service providing
company or a company that could be relevant for a service design
intervention. This can be companies that provide services in any
sector; health, entertainment, insurance, public or civil services
(e.g. policing, housing, cleaning, care etc. etc.), HR,
information, transport, banking, value-added goods etc.
NB: It should be noted that often a good target for service design innovations is a company that delivers more than mere goods – service design generally focuses on companies that deliver additional values to their goods through various service efforts. Student activities will be centered on their own case. |
