Abstract

This semester long, team-based project challenged students to develop a design system that would provide information, tools and resources to the rural community about type 2 diabetes prevention and disease management. Since the large-scale, multi-component design project for the fall 2019 System Design Integration course centered on providing diabetes education to the community, it was decided that these senior graphic design communication students could work with the third-year student pharmacists who were enrolled in the diabetes elective course entitled Diabetes immersion.
