About This Podcast

ENGINEERING CHΔNGE® is the podcast designed to help REDEFINE engineering by: RE-imaging who we see as engineers and what we see as engineering; DE-siloing our approach to academic programs, research, and problem solving; and FINE-tuning organizational conditions so people with different backgrounds and perspectives can contribute fully to outcomes that serve all of society. It's about being just as intentional with our organizational systems as we are with solving any other problems in engineering; applying a carefully planned, iterative process that includes the stakeholders from problematization through ideation, evaluation and ultimately, selecting the best solutions. Each episode will leave you with something concrete you can do to better understand your system and move forward from wherever you are in the process of ENGINEERING CHΔNGE®.
