The DESU Creativity and Innovation has the great advantage of involving a large number of teacher-researchers and professionals specializing in creativity, while presenting interdisciplinary approaches to our students. This multi-disciplinary training program has been received with great involvement and enthusiasm on all sides. The students, who were all highly motivated and dynamic, told us that their experience was both enriching and stimulating. They discovered numerous approaches, facets and methods of creativity. They had the opportunity to apply these theoretical, methodological and practical contributions during an internship in a socio-professional context of their choice. In short, this training enriches their academic and professional careers and, in the words of our students, their personal lives too.

The DESU Creativity & Innovation is a stimulating, interdisciplinary course that has deeply enriched my professional and personal life. Coming from a pedagogical and FLE (Foreign Language Education) background, I discovered new, cross-disciplinary approaches to creativity in these fields, as well as in psychology, philosophy, management, design, art, and the medical field. All these disciplines fit together perfectly, underpinned by a clear guideline to explore creativity in different forms, and stimulate innovation. This training not only enabled me to experiment with concrete techniques, but also to put my own creative potential back into motion, in a setting that was both demanding, considerate, and inspiring. A formative turning point in my professional development. Thank you very much.
