CI-103 Sticking Your Neck Out: Inventing for Non-Engineers

This course examines cutting edge technologies, the science behind them, and their practical application and follow-up success or failure. It also provides the students a chance to consider the relevance of identified needed inventions from the 1950s, and whether those projections were correct. The history behind some remarkable inventions will be presented. Finally, working in small teams, students will brainstorm to identify something useful to invent and determine several approaches to implementing it.
