More and more 21st-century jobs will ask the employee to be creative, to notice and capitalize on connections between unexpected things, and to keep in mind the stakeholders and their needs. ●​ Higher education needs to pivot away from purely-lecture-based techniques to offer experiences where students can develop this mindset. ●​ Teaching using active and problem-based learning helps more of our students learn and retain course content. We can build on these techniques to explicitly challenge our students to maintain or develop

Oneof the primary goals of this course is to help students develop a deeper understanding of theinterconnectedness of global health and engineering, and in turn, translate that understanding intomore sustainable and ethically-minded design solutions. By exposing them to real-worldchallenges and encouraging them to reflect on their own roles as engineers, the course aims to shifttheir perspectives from a purely technical focus to a more holistic view that integrates knowledgeof systemic inequalities into all phases of the design process
