The course is realized as a service design project work for the commissioner, the city of Turku, unit of Mobility services – service unit.
The purpose of the study project is to develop the future water and air transport services for mundane and recreational purposes in the city of Turku and to the archipelago. The goal is to research what kind of sustainable services and service possibilities would be needed in the future, year 2070, within the area. The objective is to innovate future services.
The course starts with an individual pre-assignment researching the political, economic, social, technological, legal, and environmental factors of water and air transport services during the summer. Otherwise the project is done as a group work.
