This paper discusses our approach to a global engineering course at Bucknell University in the Spring semester of 2010–2011. The format or course-plan for the course is presented, along with suggested improvements for an expanded version covering two semesters. The course takes a multidisciplinary approach, drawing on the resources of several academic departments at Bucknell University, and presents its content in a series of stand-alone sessions or modules. These sessions were not necessarily connected to each other regarding content; instead, they were meant to provide knowledge outside of engineering which the global engineer of the 21st century needs to be aware of, but would not normally encounter in the usual course of the engineering curriculum. |
