ME 1304 - Green Engineering: Designing Tomorrow Today


Credits: 3

Presents how design choices for materials, manufacturing processes, energy usage, and end-of-life disposal affect economic and natural environments. Also, case studies in design for the environment for various industries. In lab, students use computer modeling to create designs and then analyze and compare the designs’ total life cycle impact through eco-audits of energy and carbon footprints. Students also use software to compare and select materials best suited for a particular design and its constraints.
