chemistry curriculum is arranging student lab teams so that each person has a turninvestigating and monitoring the safety issues specific to a lab session [2]. Other appropriatepractices that include training teaching assistants in safety protocols [3], organizing a lab spacewith safety in mind [4], or making use of a virtual lab.In civil and environmental engineering, there can be many types of lab spaces. It depends on thefaculty members’ areas of interest and program emphasis. However, various types of labs can begrouped into three major categories based on the particular hazards they contain. In laboratoriesthat involve construction, materials and machinery, students encounter hazardous physicaldevices. In environmental and biological labs

important to the everyday health-conscious consumer and to people working in thebrewing industry. However, the value propositions of clean water differed greatly between thesetwo promising customer segments which caused the project to pivot to focus on the brewingindustry. The resulting device prototype was created with the market needs in mind as anaffordable reusable device with real-time chemical analysis capabilities. This paper focuses onthe educational progress and best practices students learned on engineering practical solutions tomeet people's needs. It then introduces the resulting water monitoring system and its variantwireless portable analysis platform that is in development, the latter which was created as aresponse to the needs
