participant of the recent design summit to Cambodia, I incredibly valued the opportunityto partake in the course ‘Engineering for a Humanitarian Context.’ Not only was I able tounderstand the theoretical concepts of designing for vulnerable, disadvantaged andmarginalised individuals and communities, but I was then also given the tools to sensitivelyand appropriately expand my vision as to the role of a humanitarian engineer.By combining the [EfaHC] course with the Engineers without Borders Humanitarian DesignSummit in Cambodia, I was able to apply the courses content to a real life situation anddevelop my community consultation and engagement skills whilst having the opportunity totravel and engage with like-minded students.Multiple Engagements

standings of any team in a population of100,000, also in less than 0.02 seconds. Our enterprise database was inadequate for this task,since its relational engine needed a linear scan of 100,000 records in the worst case. A well-known balanced tree algorithm with node numbering was well-suited, but implementationpresented some arcane technical problems. Help came from the Open Source softwarecommunity in the form of a production-quality embeddable database system with the requirednode-numbering feature.5Bearing in mind that our usage load estimates were rough, we set out to implement the serversoftware for scalability. We chose an architecture of communicating services that each provideda separate function. In the system’s original configuration
maintainable code is tospend significant effort refactoring a project, or throw out the original project and start from thebeginning. Our approach of incorporating an SPL owner into the project changes the motivationdiscussions and leads to more software reuse. We found that mindfulness of SPL andmaintainability by the whole team from the beginning of a project does delay development offeatures, but ultimately it saved time not having to re-write or refactor as often. Students initiallywere skeptical of the additional costs of SPL engineering, but as they saw the deployment tests,they appreciated the importance of maintainability more, and many cited it as the most significantlearning outcome of the course.6.3 Competition is a strong motivatorBy

Education Network(KEEN) and the National Collegiate Inventors and Innovators Alliance (NCIIA), with a broadmandate to undertake a first-time effort to instill the ideas of entrepreneurship in the minds of ourfaculty and students. Faced with the challenge of integrating entrepreneurship into an alreadyambitious engineering curriculum, we decided to focus our resources on activities that wouldbring together business and engineering students, two groups that normally do not interact intheir course of study, to work together on a design project.ChallengesWhile there is agreement around campus that a focus on entrepreneurship is both a timely and aworthy undertaking, there are significant obstacles to be overcome in order to achieve our goal.The

Incorporating BiomimicryAbstractTo better implement the curiosity aspect of entrepreneurial-minded learning (EML), biomimicrywas adopted in a tissue engineering course project to nourish curiosity. Biomimicry belongs tobioinspired design and has been reported to offer educators a way to engage students withsystems thinking and creative problem-solving, which can potentially inspire student curiosity.Students were required to use natural materials (from plants, insects, etc.) and naturalstructures/mechanisms in tissue-engineered product design to adopt the biomimicry principle. Atthe end of the project, an anonymous survey was conducted to assess the relationship betweenstudent curiosity and project experience. The curiosity-related assessment was based
