ENGR 204R: Designing Your Spiritual Life (ENGR 104R)

The Stanford Life Design Lab applies human centered design thinking to tackling the "wicked" problems of life and vocational wayfinding. Designing Your Spiritual Life will introduce the innovative problem-solving methodology of design thinking within the context of "life design for students with a spiritual focus," with two main objectives: 1. to serve as an affinity space for students who have a spiritual tradition that informs their life view, to approach the wicked questions of life with a structured framework that helps them to process the various challenges that are unique to their college and life experiences as a potential religious minority, and 2. to equip these students with practical ideas and tools with which they can proactively craft their post-undergraduate vocational and life experiences. This class includes seminar-style and small-group discussions, activities, personal written reflections, guest speakers, and individual mentoring/coaching. Designing Your Spiritual Life will be co-taught by Junaid Aziz from the Design Group, the Life Design Lab, and Dr. Amina Darwish from the Office of Religious and Spiritual Life, and will include guest speakers - chaplains, priests, and spiritual leaders from the Office for Religious and Spiritual Life.

ENGR 208: Patent Law and Strategy for Innovators and Entrepreneurs (MS&E 278)

This course teaches the essentials for a startup founder to build a valuable patent portfolio and avoid a patent infringement lawsuit. Jeffrey Schox and Diana Lin are partners at Schox Patent Group, which is the law firm that wrote the patents for Coinbase, Cruise, Duo, Joby, Twilio and 500+ other startups that have collectively raised over $10B in venture capital. This course, which was previously called ME 208, is appropriate for students with any engineering background. For those students who are interested in a career in Patent Law, please note that this course is a prerequisite for ME238 Patent Prosecution. There are no prerequisites for this course, but the student must be at the senior or graduate level.

ENGR 210: Perspectives in Assistive Technology (ENGR 110) (ENGR 110)

Seminar and student project course. Explores the medical, social, ethical, and technical challenges surrounding the design, development, and use of technologies that improve the lives of people with disabilities and older adults. Guest lecturers include engineers, designers, researchers, entrepreneurs, clinicians, and assistive technology users. Special activities include field trips to local facilities, an assistive technology faire, and a film screening. Students from any discipline are welcome to enroll. 3 units for students (juniors, seniors, and graduate students preferred) who pursue a team-based assistive technology project with a community partner - enrollment is limited to 27. 1 unit for seminar attendance only (CR/NC) or individual project (letter grade). Projects can be continued as independent study in Spring Quarter. See course website at http://engr110.stanford.edu. Designated a Cardinal Course by the Haas Center for Public Service.

ENGR 217: Expanding Engineering Limits: Culture, Diversity, and Equity (CSRE 117, CSRE 217, ENGR 117, FEMGEN 117, FEMGEN 217)

This course investigates how culture and diversity shape who becomes an engineer, what problems get solved, and the quality of designs, technology, and products. As a course community, we consider how cultural beliefs about race, ethnicity, gender, sexuality, abilities, socioeconomic status, and other intersectional aspects of identity interact with beliefs about engineering, influence diversity in the field, and affect equity in engineering education and practice. We also explore how engineering cultures and environments respond to and change with individual and institutional agency. The course involves weekly presentations by scholars and engineers, readings, short writing assignments, small-group discussion, and hands-on, student-driven projects. Students can enroll in the course for 1 unit (lectures only), or 3 units (lectures+discussion+project). For 1 unit, students should sign up for Section 1 and Credit/No Credit grading, and for 3 units students should sign up for Section 2 and either the C/NC or Grade option.

ENGR 231: Transformative Design

In this course students are asked to experiment with transformations in their lives which both bring their actions and principles into fuller alignment and incorporate tools which give them more mastery in dealing with the negatives in their environment and lives. We start by assessing where we are now in important aspects of our lives. Then we compare these with where we would like to be. Then we work with partners to close the gap. Then we look at negatives in our lives and develop tools to transcend the negatives.

ENGR 240: Introduction to Micro and Nano Electromechanical Systems

Miniaturization technologies now have important roles in materials, mechanical, and biomedical engineering practice, in addition to being the foundation for information technology. This course will target an audience of first-year engineering graduate students and motivated senior-level undergraduates, with the goal of providing an introduction to M/NEMS fabrication techniques, selected device applications, and the design tradeoffs in developing systems. The course has no specific prerequisites, other than graduate or senior standing in engineering; otherwise, students will require permission of the instructors.

ENGR 241: Advanced Micro and Nano Fabrication Laboratory

This project course focuses on developing fabrication processes for ExFab, a shared facility that supports flexible lithography, heterogeneous integration, and rapid micro prototyping. Team projects are approved by the instructor and are mentored by an SNF staff member and an external mentor from industry. Students will plan and execute experiments and document them in a final presentation and report, to be made available on the lab's Wiki for the benefit of the Stanford research community. Students must consult with Prof. Fan, SNF staff, and an external mentor, and also need to submit an approved proposal before signing up.

ENGR 245: The Lean LaunchPad: Getting Your Lean Startup Off the Ground

Learn how to turn a technical idea from a lab, research, or vision into a successful business using the Lean Launchpad process (business model canvas, customer development, running experiments, and agile engineering.) Hands-on experiential class. 15+ hours per week talking to customers, regulators and partners outside the classroom, plus time building minimal viable products. This class is the basis of the National Science Foundation I-Corps with a focus on understanding all the components to build for deep technology and life science applications. Team applications required in March. Proposals may be software, hardware, or service of any kind. See course website http://leanlaunchpad.stanford.edu/. Prerequisite: interest in and passion for exploring whether your technology idea can become a real company. Limited enrollment.
