Bring your lunch and join Dr. Julitte Huez, Ph.D., INP – ENSIACET and TLL to discuss how “design-fiction” can help engineering students learn to develop more diverse and creative solutions to complex technological problems.

The waste sector is a significant source of natural resource consumption and greenhouse gas emissions, which is why it constitutes a critical theme in the training of engineering students. This discussion will center on a pilot study of a design-fiction teaching module aimed at problematizing the idea of waste by asking groups of engineering students to consider different climatic and technological futures. Dr. Huez will share the findings of the pilot study – conducted with her colleague Nicolas Hervé. There will be time for discussion.

Space is limited for this in-person workshop and registration is required.
