Sustainability doesn’t have to mean sacrifice and deprivation! In this hands-on, team-based, multidisciplinary class we will tackle real design challenges, attempting to increase sustainability hand-in-hand with abundance. We will apply the design process to challenges such as “How to Expand the Use of Bicycles” with the goal of positively impacting environmental and economic sustainability as well as physical and emotional health and wellbeing. Students will benefit from close interaction with the teaching team, support from project sponsors, and the varied perspectives of a wide range of guest speakers.
