I2D-list FW: Engineering and Globalization (ENE55400) - Spring 2017
by Burniske, Andrea E 21 Dec '16

21 Dec '16

Dear I2D List Faculty, Please see information (below) from Brent Jesiek about a Spring semester class on Globalization that he is team teaching with Jennifer DeBoer. Also, attached, is a related Spring semester course on international development that I have teaching slots in, as well as many others. It is Agronomy, but perfectly applicable to any student who is interested in this topic. Note that undergrads need permission to enroll from their advisors. Best wishes, and Lovely Celebrations to you all, Andrea Andrea Burniske Program Manager, I 2D Lab Global Engineering Programs, 4th Floor, Wang Hall Purdue University West Lafayette, IN Ph: 765.496.3533 Skype: AndreaLaBurniske https://engineering.purdue.edu/GEP/I2DLab Punctuated Equilibrium - the hypothesis that evolutionary development is marked by isolated episodes of rapid speciation between long periods of little or no change From: Jesiek, Brent K Sent: Tuesday, December 20, 2016 3:47 PM To: Burniske, Andrea E <Andreaburniske(a)purdue.edu> Subject: Fw: Engineering and Globalization (ENE55400) - Spring 2017 Hi Andrea, We are trying to get word out about a Spring 2017 graduate course that Jennifer DeBoer and I are teaching for the first time: ENE55400 - Engineering and Globalization. More details below. Might you kindly forward this information to the I2D mailing list? Thanks and happy holidays! Brent (and Jennifer) -- ENE55400 - Engineering and Globalization - Spring 2017 Mondays, 10:30-1:20 PM, ARMS 3109 CRN 19958 The focus of this course is on the multifaceted economic, social, cultural, and technological dynamics of globalization, including associated impacts on engineering education and practice. The course emphasizes engineering, globalization, cultural identity, and society primarily from the perspectives of the emerging Asian economies and Europe, as well as the United States. The course includes a number of historical and contemporary case studies, offering opportunities for exploration of topics and themes such as global knowledge economies and migration, international and transnational institutions, and economic development. It is taught within a learner-centric, highly interactive, collaborative learning environment in which students are expected to learn from one another, as well as from the instructor and other course resources. The course places particular emphasis on oral and written communication skills, intercultural development, web-based research, and information literacy. Engineering and Globalization is designed for engineering students, educators, and practicing professionals who have engaged, or expect to engage, with global or multicultural projects.

Faculty presenters, please invite your colleagues. Also RSVP ASAP. [cid:image003.png@01D24F06.5A283BF0] BI-MONTHLY MEETINGS REMINDER Colleagues, The Innovation for International Development Lab (I2D Lab) under the Office of Global Engineering Programs (GEP) aims to foster a vibrant community of faculty, staff, and students working with international partners to address grand challenges in international development based on engineering innovations and market-driven approaches. This includes research, design, adaptation, and field-testing of appropriate technologies and services that have strong potential to become scalable solutions for energy access, healthcare, water and sanitation, labor-saving innovations, and disaster/humanitarian response. The next I2D Lab meeting of this semester is scheduled for Wednesday, December 7th,, 11:30 (lunch) 12:00-1:30pm (meeting) in WANG 2501with the following agenda: 12:00pm Announcements - funding opportunities, upcoming campus visitors and events, etc. 12:15pm Seed Grantees Chip Blatchley (CE) and Margaret Busse, Solar UV Disinfection for Water Production in Developing Countries 12:45pm Seed Grantee Jackie Linnes (BME), Rapid, paper-based point of care detection of neo-natal sepsis 1:15pm Round-the-table updates We offer the opportunity to join I2D Lab meetings remotely via WebEx. If you would like to join via this option, please let me know and I will send a connection link. The goal of these meetings is to learn more about engineering faculty interests and ongoing projects in global sustainable development, look for potential research collaborations, and to network with partners on campus to target new funding/partnership opportunities. Please feel free to share this announcement with interested colleagues or graduate students. We ask that you RSVP at gep(a)purdue.edu<mailto:gep@purdue.edu> to this, and subsequent meetings so that we can obtain a count for lunch. If you do not RSVP, you will not receive lunch. Lunch starts at 11:30. Please RSVP by noon, Monday October 2nd so Tami is able to place the lunch order. The meeting schedule for remainder of the semester follows. If you are interested in sharing your own project in an upcoming meeting, please let us know. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ALL MEETINGS ARE 12:00-1:30PM IN WANG 2501 I2D Meeting Schedule: Fall Semester 2016- 2017 Wednesday, October 5: Seed Grantees Chad Jafvert and John Howarter; Rural Potable Water Systems, and Gary Burniske, Logical Frameworks for Development Projects Thursday, October 20: Seed Grantees Jennifer DeBoer, Engineering Skills Curriculum and Digital Materials for Out-of-School Youth; and Yuehwern Yih, CRS Emergency Response E-Supply Chain Management System Wednesday, November 2: Seed Grantee Nandi Indoor Air Pollution Study (Danielle presenting) and Andrea Burniske, Monitoring and Evaluation for Development Projects Thursday, November, 17: Seed Grantees Chongli Yuan and Julie Liu, Cell-phone Based Detection of HIV Drug Resistance, and Klein Ileleji, Grain Moisture Sensor Wednesday, December 7: Seed Grantee Chip Blatchley and Margaret Busse, Solar UV Disinfection for Water Production in Developing Countries ; and Jackie Linnes, Rapid, low-cost detection of neo-natal sepsis Andrea Burniske Program Manager, i2D Lab Global Engineering Programs 4th Floor, Wang Hall Purdue University West Lafayette, IN Ph: 765.496.3533 Skype: AndreaLaBurniske
