Water contamination can include multiple issues, includingsuspended solids, turbidity, dissolved organics, and heavy metals, as well as bacteria or otherpathogens. Problems such as water quality may attract students to engineering as a means topursue a career dedicated to improving the human condition. Opportunities for students to furthertheir knowledge and awareness of humanitarian issues within the undergraduate curriculum canenhance their knowledge of these career paths and build on research or extra-curricularopportunities related to humanitarian engineering.

The modules started witha short introduction and lecture, then the necessary hands-on skills were taught, and at the end of theday, a small hands-on project was completed. Every day the program started with breakfast at 8:00a.m. and ended at 5:30 in the evening with dinner. Module specific activities started at 10:00 a.m.and ended at 3:30 p.m. During these two weeks, modules were held from Monday throughThursday.

The artists described how the experiencehumanized engineering, but gatekeeping did emerge when it came to engineers painting andmaking creative choices on the project.
