DESCRIPTION:The WIE LAUTECH Design Workshop 2026: Mastering Design for Inno
 vation & Impact is a one-day capacity-building program aimed at equipping 
 engineering students with essential design skills needed to effectively co
 mmunicate ideas\, build impactful projects\, and present innovative soluti
 ons.\n\nIn today’s technology-driven world\, engineers require more than
  just technical knowledge they must be able to visually communicate concep
 ts\, develop user-centered solutions\, and present their work in compellin
 g ways. This workshop addresses that gap by introducing participants to de
 sign thinking\, visual communication\, branding\, and presentation design.
 \n\nThe session will feature hands-on training using industry-relevant too
 ls such as Canva and Figma\, enabling students to create professional flye
 rs\, pitch decks\, and design prototypes. Participants will also engage in
  practical exercises that encourage creativity\, problem-solving\, and col
 laboration.\n\nThis initiative is organized by the IEEE Women in Engineeri
 ng (WIE) LAUTECH Student Branch to empower students especially women in ST
 EM with relevant digital and design skills that enhance their academic\, p
 rofessional\, and entrepreneurial growth.\n\nBy the end of the workshop\, 
 participants will have gained practical design knowledge\, improved their 
 ability to present ideas effectively\, and developed skills that contribut
 e to innovation and real-world impact.\n\nCo-sponsored by: IEEE Lautech St
