SSE 3500 - Humanitarian Engineering



Credits: 3

Description: In this course, students are introduced to humanitarian engineering through hands-on instruction and project work in tandem with lectures. Students design and implement a sustainable community project that helps an underrepresented community to meet the population’s basic engineering needs. This project is based on knowledge of relevant community development methodologies that students are introduced to through lecture. Students learn to apply Appropriate Design concepts, as well as development implementation strategy with respect to sustainability, and design for community. Students compare and contrast engineering for developing community systems strategies with the traditional design process.
