an understanding of the broad context in which engineering occurs. Systems thinking is a holistic approach to design that requires understanding the connectedness of engineering projects and decisions to broader social, economic, and environmental systems. In systems thinking it is understood that the components of a design act differently when isolated from the environment or other parts of the system. Thus, there is an inherent need for interdisciplinary collaboration to best understand the impacts and tradeoffs of engineering design decisions. The sustainability thread encompasses the skills and behaviors desired of a graduate that will allow them to navigate the environmental, social, technical, and economic

Frugal Engineering can be defined as a process that reducesproduct/process/project complexity with a focus on customer need and affordability. Some universitieshave already seen the need for frugality, as in the Frugal Innovation Hub at Santa Clara University(https://www.scu.edu/engineering/labs--research/labs/frugal-innovation-hub/), and the Social E Lab atStanford University where complete projects as part of a program in Design for Extreme

. Using the model, the rear joint was analyzed to see the effects of joint clearance on the movement of the knee. Since these joints are the only point of wear, this is where the most of the group research went into. Too tight of joint clearances could cause the knee to seize and result in failure. However, too loose of clearances could cause the whole knee assembly to feel sloppy and rattle apart. The group has found that a joint clearance of 0.008 inches gave the knee the best results. This investigation will provide good insight for the design of prosthetic knee that is safe, reliable, and feel natural. Figure 4: Four
