Student Projects

Since 1997 I have been adjunct professor at the Stuart Graduate School of Business at the Illinois Institute of Technology, conducting a class in Industrial Ecology (IE) in the Environmental Management Program.

Students are MS Environmental Management candidates with background in Engineering, Law, Science, Business, etc.

The class uses the product as the focus for learning about the concepts of IE and creative strategies for mitigating the environmental impact of the products we produce.
The major project in the class is a team product assessment.

A written analysis and presentation of the results of the team exploration is required.

Included here are presentations from the EM-507 class.
