Leaders in sustainability must be able to understand rapid changes in environmental and social conditions, innovate to adapt to those changes, collaborate to envision transitions to sustainable futures, and engage with others to realize those visions. To build these capacities, this course develops systems thinking skills using readings and case studies drawn from environmental, social, and business contexts.

Introduces the process of engineering research at an upper division level. Students explore a discipline specific research project and draft a research paper. Course discusses engineering research career topics including graduate programs, fellowships and funding, research organizations, publication and presentations.

Introduction to how to design, make decisions, and communicate effectively in a global technology environment. Students are introduced to globalization with case studies that may include design, supply chain, international development, and other relevant issues. Students are required to participate in the international field trip that complements the course. Fee: $3,500
