Desired Behavior

Students should be inclined to take an internship and have all the necessary credits to graduate on time. It should be easy to understand which semesters to take classes and how to organize time to take an internship.

Design Tip Employed

To encourage people to select a specific option, make it the default; likewise to discourage people from selecting an option, don’t make it the default.

Proposed Nudge Design Solution

By having an organized schedule that stacks classes for at least one semester and encourages internships by making it the default credit, students will be more likely to graduate on time and with at least one internship.
