Putting Biomimicry Into Action in Your Profession and Life

Biomimicry offers a framework for innovation rooted in nature’s intelligence—helping us solve problems with sustainability, efficiency, and creativity. Led by Andrew Howley, Chief Editor of the Biomimicry Institute, this four-week interactive course will equip you with the tools to reframe challenges through nature’s lens and turn inspired ideas into action.

Nature holds solutions to many of our greatest challenges, but moving from inspiration to action requires a shift in perspective. This course provides a hands-on approach to applying biomimicry in both personal and professional contexts, helping you see problems differently and uncover nature-inspired strategies for solving them.

Through engaging discussions and real-world examples, you'll develop the skill of thinking through challenges as nature does, gain practical tools to turn inspired ideas into concrete plans, and leave with actionable steps you can put into practice right away. Along the way, you’ll explore the fundamentals of biology and ecology, examine existing biomimetic innovations, and learn how to see nature not just as something to admire, but as a guide for innovation.

This course runs from October 9-30, 2025, with live classes held Thursdays from 10 - 11:30 a.m. (PT) via Zoom. Recordings will be available for registrants who are unable to attend a session.
