This course is an introduction to the consideration of technology as the outcome of particular technical, historical, cultural, and political efforts, especially in the United States during the 19th and 20th centuries. Topics include industrialization of production and consumption, development of engineering professions, the emergence of management and its role in shaping technological forms, the technological construction of gender roles, and the relationship between humans and machines.

This course considers how the visual and material world of “nature” has been reshaped by industrial practices, ideologies, and institutions, particularly in nineteenth- and twentieth-century America. Topics include land-use patterns; the changing shape of cities and farms; the redesign of water systems; the construction of roads, dams, bridges, irrigation systems; the creation of national parks; ideas about wilderness; and the role of nature in an industrial world. From small farms to suburbia, Walden Pond to Yosemite, we will ask how technological and natural forces have interacted, and whether there is a place for nature in a technological world. Acknowledgement This class is based on one originally designed and taught by Prof. Deborah Fitzgerald.

The engineer of the year 2020 and beyond will require an increasingly broad set of technical and business skills. Today's technical environment already spans from product development to design to planning for manufacture to manufacture to qualification to marketing and to maintenance of a product. In the future, engineers will also address business requirements to include: marketing, capital equipment justification and procurement, pricing and capitalization. In general, engineers of the future will provide many of the business and technical integration requirements linking engineering and business. Our focus and presentation of the technologies of engineering will strongly be skewed toward how these activities fit into the manufacturing of a product but also with emphasis of design and planning for manufacturing. Integration (both functional where design is linked to manufacturing and informational where data is available to everybody) is key to future engineering success. Our presentation of materials in this repository will be directed toward this vision.
