The purpose of this seminar series is to help equip students and professionals with the tools to apply the engineering mindset to problems that stem from climate change, in order to consider and evaluate possible interventional, remedial and adaptive approaches. This course is not a crash course on climate change (established climate experts are better equipped for that), nor is it a crash course in policy ? instead the course focuses on discovering and exploring climate problems that seem most likely to benefit from adding the engineering mindset as solutions are considered. In each weekly class, a guest speaker will deliver a brief introductory talk (20-30 minutes) in his/her area of expertise to set the framework in terms of climate, energy, resource, policy and public opinion, and then proceed to explore with the class some of the problems that seem most amenable to engineering input. Reference material, made available as optional reading, will include quantitative and overview information in the various focus areas from the litera-ture, primary sources, climate reports generated by national and international bodies, and indi-vidual experts to provide supplemental material to give an overview as possible to evaluate and compare various proposed response scenarios. Class participation following each class? intro-ductory talk will be strongly encouraged and it is expected there will be lively group discussions.
