Weiss Valparaiso University/Michigan Technological UniversityAbstractThree hands-on projects intended to engage the non-engineering student in environmental issuesare introduced and discussed. In the first, students use different sized agar cubes with a diffusingdye to observe how surface area to volume relationships affect mass transfer rates. Results canbe used to introduce students to issues such as cellular diffusion, air stripping towers, tricklingfilters, and aeration processes. The

. IntroductionBuildings are a major consumer of energy in the United States. A large percentage of thisconsumption is accounted for by the heating, ventilation, and air-conditioning (HVAC) needs ofthe building. Students and entry level engineers in this field need to have a firm understandingof energy mechanisms and processes specific to building systems. This includes new renewableenergy and energy efficiency technologies. They also need to be familiar with a constantlychanging and growing list of subsidiary knowledge; such as construction principles, advancedcontrol systems, state and federal energy standards, and new professional certifications.Over the last several years the author has worked with entry level and experienced HVACengineers as a Student Branch

Some departments are also challenged with bringing laboratory experienceinto the Freshman year. Others are interested in presenting advanced technology or emergingfields through laboratory experiments. Typically chemical engineering laboratory experiments are presented in a Senior-level unitoperations laboratory. In this setting students gain experience with many of the processes thatare presented in various previous courses in the curriculum, e.g. heat exchanger, distillationcolumn, extraction column, filter press, reverse osmosis system. In the majority of cases theseare pilot-scale process units that are quite expensive and complex. A

The combination of a growing world population with the human tendency to delaydealing with infrastructure and environmental needs until they have reached crisis proportions,means that our profession will become more essential than ever before.” Clough acknowledgesthat there are emerging fields where most research money is being poured, and urges

To create the needed advanced technology to wage the war, Ph.D’s inscience were enlisted to work on undersea warfare technology, radar and nuclear weapons. Then there wasSputnik. Both World War II and Sputnik served as wake-up-calls to the universities to do something aboutengineering education, that is, a shift in the education of the engineering student to emphasize the scienceunderlying engineering. Not only courses, but research as well, reflected this change. Beginning in the 1970s through to the present, there was the realization or perception that America wasfalling behind Japan and other nations in manufacturing and in general, in relating science
