of general physical principles.In the past, student engagement has suffered as students struggled to relate class topics to thedesign fields. Borrowing from successful aspects of engineering education, I have recentlyredesigned this course to better complement the practical and applied nature of these disciplines.Rather than traditional problem solving and calculations, students learn through analysis ofcomplex systems. In lieu of homework and exams, the focus of the class has been shifted togroup projects and case studies which demonstrate the application of important topics. As acenterpiece of the course, students are tasked with the construction and presentation of RubeGoldberg chain-reaction machines. This provides a structure by which

The next two sections, the students select from eight different“mini-projects” on topics such as Artificial Kidney Design(2), Biomass Conversion toFuels and Absorption of Wastewater Contaminants. These “mini- projects” are project-based multi-disciplinary design experiences.
