NSF GRANTEES POSTER SESSION Research Experiences in Pollution Prevention and SustainabilityAbstractRowan University hosts an NSF REU Site in Pollution Prevention and Sustainabilityevery summer. Undergraduate students from various science and engineering disciplinesfrom all over the USA participated in these pollution prevention research activities.Engineering faculty mentored students for an eight-week period. While research was theprimary activity, other community building modules, seminars, social events andcommunication strengthening exercises were an integral part of the Pollution Preventionexperience. A special workshop on environmental ethics and environmental justice wasalso offered to help students connect pollution prevention

Hands-on Introduction to Chemical and Biological EngineeringSession 1526: We have revised our freshman seminar course by modeling it after RowanUniversity’s exemplary Freshman Engineering Clinic course which utilizes a hands-onlaboratory approach to introduce freshman students to engineering. Innovative laboratorymodules developed and published by faculty at Rowan under NSF funding were adaptedand implemented. These laboratories utilize common activities (such as brewing coffee,taking blood pressure, and delivery of medication) to teach fundamental engineeringprinciples, techniques for experimental measurement, data representation and analysis,and group problem solving and communication skills. Many of these laboratories aredesigned
