Description

The BEP – Bachelor End Project course offers a combination of coaching and project work on real-life cases, exploring XX as the graduating bachelor students’ last Design Project course (DP5). During the first weeks of the course, the students are introduced to design methodology and tools such as stakeholder mapping. Leveraging this, we offered three identical stakeholder mapping workshops at TU Delft utilizing two ATTRACTS RD&I cases.

Students were introduced to the SNIFFIRDRONE consortium and technology through the ATTRACT technology card. Students were given a Needfinding toolkit, and the technology card, and as their first activity they individually listed all stakeholders they could think of related to SNIFFIRDRONE’s case. The following step was to map the stakeholders into groups of potential sceptics, codesigners, change agents, and informants. This compilation of student insights represents a curated selection from altogether 22 group submissions of the mapped stakeholders for the two introduced projects, and individual questionnaire answers reflecting their process. The comments presented here are those of students, and they have not been edited.
