potential applications of OPE (Oligo phenylene ethynylenes) polymers, solids with remarkable antimicrobial resistance. This prototypical entrepreneurial challenge exposes students to current research conducted by Dr. Dave Whitten.2. Students complete a community water contamination remediation project where they investigate the hazards of acid drainage from abandoned mines, which are abundant in New Mexico. Students perform lab work and develop a treatment, prevention, and emergency response for rural communities, along with a community engagement strategy.3. Students complete a “Why Chem E?” challenge which introduces them to the scope of the chemical engineering profession. Students work in teams to research and interview an alumnus
