This course represents the capstone of the MEML program. It is a project-based and discussion- based course where students develop economically-sustainable, technological solutions to society’s most complex grand challenges using the methods and competencies taught in the MEML program. Students are expected to devise Industry 4.0 relevant solutions, with mechanisms for continuous learning and improving the solution from end-user data, while bounding all approaches with a demonstrable ethical-technical framework. In order to enroll in an online section of this course, you are expected to have a working camera and microphone. During class sessions, you must be able to participate using your microphone and you are expected to have your camera on for the duration of the class so that you are visible to the instructor and other students in the class, just as you would be in an in person class.
