GNRG 301 is a collaborative, service based curriculum. The 301s are seniors that have been in the Greengineering program since their freshman/sophomore year and want to commit eight blocks a week to Greengineering.
ConsultingWe spend a large portion of class time examining how students interact with the shop. Our job is to make the program the best it can be (whether that means organizing the shop, updating our websites, etc.)
|
Co-TeachingWe co-teach the Xplores and 101s with Dr, Tupper. As students that have gone through all the GNRG programs, we have an insiders perspective on what makes certain design challenges/projects great!
|
ProjectsWe have the freedom and flexibility to create anything and everything we want (obviously there are a few restrictions-time, money, and safety). It is up to us to decide what we want to do and how we want to do it.
