    Welcome to the course Product Sustainability (AAN-C2007)! During this course we study how to make more sustainable choices when developing a product. The teams will pursue to make a green version of their original product by using different tools and approaches. The final green solutions are presented in a Product Lauch in December.

    The contact teaching sessions for the whole group are (mainly) at the Aalto Design Factory Stage - lecture room on Tuesdays (15:15-18:00). However, there are exceptions for this

    • The first session will be on Monday Sep 5th (due to the Aalto academic year opening at 6th)
    • The second session on Sep 13th will be 13-16 at Stage (due to electicity break starting at 16)
    • The sessions Sep 27th and Oct 4th will take place in zoom. The scedule for the session 5 will be agreed with teams (due to the nature of the sessions)
    • The second last session will be Dec 7th (due to Finnish independece day Dec 6th)

    The participation in the contact teaching sessions is part of the course execution.


    Looking forward for seeing you!
