Interdisciplinary Food, Energy, Water Systems Analysis

Carl R. Ice College of Engineering

Description:

This interdisciplinary microcredential will equip you with skills to understand and analyze complex systems, particularly adaptive systems that relate to food, energy, and water systems. Using LOOPY, a virtual tool for thinking in systems, you will build models of engineering and natural systems to understand the interaction between these systems and the built environment. This will lay the framework for interdisciplinary research and deliver solutions for creating resilient systems.

Complete the following courses:

  • ME 710 – Intermediate Topics in Interdisciplinary Systems Analysis (1 credit)
  • ME 711 – Interdisciplinary Seminar (0 credits)
