This course provides a unique opportunity to explore the grand engineering challenges facing our planet through the lens of the UN Sustainable Development Goals. Students will engage in interdisciplinary teams to design solutions to address these challenges. The experience will culminate in submitting projects to and participating in the Green Challenge at the Danish Technical University (DTU) in Denmark in June. Students from all engineering disciplines and students from other STEM disciplines, who are excited to explore interdisciplinary solutions to the world's challenges are encouraged to apply.
