Episode 31: Human engineering - putting people at the heart of solutions

Season 1 Episode 31 Published 6 years, 5 months ago
Description

Dr Sarah Lyden and Niamh Chapman cover why human-centered engineering is crucial for designing solutions and the work of Engineers Without Borders with special guests Andrew Koolhof and David Pointing. We also caught up with some first-year engineering students who have just taken part in a project to put people at the heart of engineering solutions. The first team was MArtin Croall, Joe Bailey, Martin Blengsli and Izaac Denholm who had a simple yet innovative solution for power supply (cover image). The second team was Dominic Brown and Thomas Little who filled us in on a solution for water purification.
