ENGR 100 Section 910 - Socially Engaged Design of Nuclear Energy Technologies

As more people experience the real impacts of climate change, the need for strategic collaboration between design experts and local communities has become more urgent. In this section, you will use XR technologies to learn socially-engaged design and community outreach related to nuclear technologies for global decarbonization. You will cover the following topics:
- Nuclear reactor design - fission and fusion
- Socially-engaged design strategies
- Ethics, equity, and justice frameworks and their applications to engineering design
Engineering 100 is the start of a University of Michigan engineer's journey. Students take part in a real-world project that utilizes the fundamentals of their section's topic. From microprocessors to rockets to food, there are several mediums for students to pick from; all cover the same fundamentals (employ the engineer design process, communicate effectively as an engineer, collaborate in diverse teams, understand and practice professional engineering values).
