Engineers are facing new challenges connected with globalisation, digitisation and the increased complexity of the design process. This calls for new, more interdisciplinary and user-oriented approaches to problem- solving. In this article, the authors analyse design thinking (DT) as a method to support the education of engineers specialising in architecture and urban planning. Identified in this study are the opportunities this method offers to solve design and planning problems, as well as the limitations of the method. It is based on experience gained, while conducting regional and urban planning courses for engineers in the Faculty of Architecture at Gdańsk University of Technology (FA-GUT). Gdańsk, Poland, The design thinking method is not a remedy for all design problems, but the user-centric, iterative and experimental approach that can help to prepare future professionals to conduct participatory design in the changing conditions of the modern world.
