Bootcamps

Simulations

Digital Modules

Bootcamps are short intensive workshops where students work together to solve real-life problems using Design Thinking techniques.
Simulations provide students with realistic scenarios where they make decisions across different departments of a company based on what they have learned.
Digital modules allow students to access lectures and continue learning at their own pace through pre-recorded videos, ensuring uninterrupted learning.

Power of the Case Study Methodology

SOIL, as a Harvard publishing partner, incorporates the Harvard case study approach in its classes to provide students with the best models for analyzing real-life situations.

Liberal Arts Foundation

A liberal arts education goes beyond teaching you job-related skills; it gives you valuable experiences and helps you understand the meaning and purpose of your life. In today’s job market, employers highly value soft skills. Our foundation program focuses on teaching students the following essential skills:

How to communicate your ideas
Find and analyze information and data
Adapt to new technology and professional trends
Work with others to solve problems
Make confident, knowledgeable decisions.

Foundational Courses Offered

Design Thinking

What is Design Thinking?

Design Thinking is a step-by-step approach that helps us better understand the user, question our assumptions, and redefine problems. By doing this, we can find new ideas and solutions that may not have been obvious at first. The process usually involves the following phases, which are widely recognized and used:

Phases in Design Thinking

Empathize

Being able to understand the world from other people’s perspectives, seeing what they see, feeling what they feel, and experiencing things as they do.

Define

Combining the information gathered about users in the previous stage to create a clear problem statement incorporating their needs, pain points, and insights.

Ideate

Generating various ideas and possibilities by putting yourself in the shoes of others and exploring different perspectives, thoughts, and experiences.

Prototype

Creating experimental versions or models of potential solutions to address the problems identified in the earlier stages.

Test

Thoroughly evaluate the product or solution using the best ideas developed in the prototype phase.

Test

Organizations with Design Thinking

Airbnb

Took a small company earning $200 per week and turned it into a $40 million company by understanding the needs of people who prefer staying in hotels.

P&G

Observed women in their 40s while shopping and expanded its beauty product range to include them, resulting in a significant increase in sales.

Mobisol

Spent over four years in Tanzania reinventing solar energy supply in rural African countries, leading to annual savings of 15,525 tons of CO2 equivalent.

Life-Saving Dot or Jeevan Bindi

Was created for women. It is a bindi coated with iodine that can deliver up to 150 micrograms of iodine through the skin over eight hours. This innovation has helped save 300,000 women from iodine deficiency.

How Will the Students Benefit?

Design Thinking is a fresh and different way of thinking that helps students solve problems. It encourages thinking outside the box, being creative, and using visual techniques to come up with innovative solutions.

Unlearn patterned thinking

Understand Human Needs

Create Sustainable Businesses

Generate ideas for Innovation

Developing a fail fast approach

Design Thinking isn’t limited to technology or design – it can be used in any industry, government project, policy, or non-profit organization.

Unlearn Patterned Thinking

Are humans naturally innovative? Are we naturally focused on the needs of other humans? The answer is yes. But do all people believe that? Most would say no.

The following example will help us understand the issues with this patterned thinking.

The truck is stuck under an over bridge, causing huge traffic jams. How can this be resolved?

*Think for a minute before reading the solution

Schoolkids with unpatterned thinking provided a much better solution than most university toppers and degree holders. Here’s what they suggested.

Un Patterned Thinkers

(Kids, Design Thinkers, Innovators)

Don’t have assumptions or challenge assumptions

Patterned Thinkers

(Many of us)

Don’t challenge assumptions and limit our thinking process

Understand Human Needs

The core of Design Thinking is to understand and connect with the customer. It’s an approach that puts the needs of the end-users at the center of problem-solving. By empathizing with customers, we can identify their frustrations and find ways to enhance their lives and experiences.

Creating Sustainable Businesses

Design Thinking aims to discover solutions by understanding human needs. The diagram below illustrates how design thinking combines business viability, technological feasibility, and meeting people’s needs.

Sometimes, big tech companies and manufacturers prioritize solving complex problems without focusing on improving the value provided to customers. With Design Thinking, the human-centered approach helps us find meaningful solutions to problems.

Generate Ideas for Innovation

When students come across a great idea, it’s usually not something entirely new. Great ideas often come from combining existing ideas in a creative way.

Design thinking works best when people collaborate to solve problems. By working together, they can come up with innovative solutions.

Develop a fail-fast approach – Be Iterative

In “Design Thinking,” every step we take is focused on creating prototypes and testing them. The process is all about taking action. The main objective is to create prototypes quickly, do them frequently, and test them with real users.

By rapidly creating prototypes, we accept that failure is a way to learn. Students discover the limitations of their mock products and make improvements. This approach of failing fast helps students stay motivated and continuously search for alternative solutions.

Industry Projects & Relevance

In a design-thinking culture, action is essential. The five stages of design thinking highlight the importance of brainstorming and generating ideas. But to make a real impact, we must actively create prototypes and test them.

Here are some projects they can work on during their time on campus:

Creation of partnerships between the Manesar Community and Surrounding Industries

Manesar is a town that is growing quickly, especially in terms of new businesses and government offices. Our students focus on finding suitable partnerships for the Manesar community, which is made up of small-scale industries, MSMEs, and farmers.

Interesting Projects To Work On

Identifying ways to increase the impact of electric vehicles in India

Saving energy is a top priority for many countries. In the USA, hybrid and electric cars are already making a difference, and their use is expected to increase significantly in the future. If the students’ projects show promise, our consortium partners like Tata Motors and Schneider Electric will be involved.

Reimagining your classroom space

Imagine a classroom that doesn’t look like a traditional classroom but more like an artist’s studio. Our students work on projects to improve the current classroom model, making it more flexible, and enhancing communication between students and teachers. These projects help students better understand the concepts being taught.

The Design Thinking Workshop

The Design Thinking (DT) Workshop is a compulsory process for students to undergo as it aims to find the ones who are extremely good and efficient in real-time working environments rather than identifying them solely based on their past academic performances and entrance exam scores.

The dire need for business leaders in the workforce who are innovative, agile, and adaptive to change has redefined the MBA education system. The first step towards creating leaders of such quality begins with the selection of suitable students at the B-school.

An example of a Design Thinking workshop is given below.
