Items such asplastics, golf clubs, and hip implants are explored. Students who elect to take this course comefrom a wide range of majors such as education, marketing, architecture, and history. Somestudents are also engineering majors, seeking unique perspectives on materials not oftendiscussed in a traditional materials courses. The course assessment indicated that some of thestudent in non-engineering majors did not see the connection of this course with their major.The conclusion was that the teaching
