Welcome to the parent page for Design for the Environment.
This course is currently offered to third year mechanical engineering students at the University of Toronto (Canada).
The goal of the course is to provide students with the analysis tools and design strategies to design products that minimize their impact on the environment. The course focuses on a product’s overall environmental impact throughout its entire lifecycle. We focus on areas of particular relevance to Mechanical Engineering such as: product design, materials, energy conservation and recovery, manufacturing topics, automotive issues and air pollution.
As part of the course, students carry out a through comparison of three design alternatives that fulfil the same practical purpose. Some groups decide to do a final oral presentations, whereas others will be posting a summarized version of their reports on Wikiversity. You will find the links to these reports on this page.
