Summary
Over the past two decades, efforts to reduce waste, reuse materials, and design products to last have become more important in how we approach business, design, and engineering. These ideas are foundational to a circular economy, wherein landfill waste is significantly reduced, and central to global efforts to fight climate change. As such, teaching engineering students the concepts of sustainability is now critical, yet many college programs focus mostly on theory and hypothetical scenarios. Hands-on experiences that help students connect classroom learning to real-world challenges are distin
