Engineering Education for the Next Generation: A Nature-Inspired Approach
The cutting-edge of engineering is where human innovation meets the other creative force on this planet: biology. Biologically-inspired innovation is responsible for modern human technologies ranging from the cell phone to vaccines to artificial intelligence, and we're just getting started. Find out how bioinspired innovation is transforming how engineers think and invent, how engineering education today is taught, and how the future is bright because of these surprising and exciting trends.
Perhaps ironically, the natural world has turned out to be the most powerful instrument for captivating young people about subjects like technology, engineering, and science. That’s because scientists and engineers today are studying everything from ants, butterflies, and evolution itself to improve how we design video games, movies, cell phones, and more. Discover how you can use Nature to captivate your students and explore STEM/STEAM subjects, align your teaching with the 21st century, and inspire tomorrow’s inventors to create a better world.
Humankind’s most distinctive quality is our extraordinary technological capacity. But where do our inventive abilities come from? Come learn how humankind’s stunning technological achievements, like cellphones, airplanes, antibiotics, and much more, all came from a surprising source, and what it means for technological progress going forward.
Humankind now faces unprecedented challenges resulting from our negative impact on the environment. At the same time, help comes from an unlikely ally: Nature. Come learn how today’s technologists are drawing inspiration from the only example of a sustainable world we have – the natural world – to invent solutions to resource scarcity, pollution, climate change, biodiversity loss and more.
Inventors increasingly look to Nature for innovative technological ideas, and the results are nothing short of stunning. Find out why NASA scientists study how leaves unfold, what Costa Rican butterflies have to do with design of the next iPhone, why viruses just may save your life, and how the brain cells you’re using to read this right now have started a revolution in artificial intelligence.
