FEW Nexus Challenge

Catalog description

Building on the Intro to FEW and Cultural Training courses, students will engage in problem identification at the FEW Nexus with guidelines to consider the sociology components, political and legal components, and environmental components at these intersections using the Renaissance Foundry Model. Concepts of sustainability and ethical design will be highlighted leveraging the Engineering for One Planet framework. Further, students will engage in both knowledge acquisition and knowledge transfer activities that will help build their collaborative, critical thinking, and innovation-driven learning skills to apply to the food-energy-water challenges identified in the course.
