The Product Design Academy is a three-week intensive program offered by the University of Pennsylvania's Wharton Global Youth Program that immerses high school students in design thinking and product development. Participants work through the full product development process, from identifying customer needs and generating concepts to building prototypes and presenting a final physical product at a culminating showcase. The program takes place in a studio-based environment where students apply real business and design principles to solve meaningful, real-world problems. It is a rare opportunity to learn directly from one of the world's top business schools while developing skills that are increasingly valuable in any career path.
