There is no such thing as waste in living systems. Waste Meets Creativity is a hands-on exploration of how art and creativity can meet the challenges of waste by cultivating a deeper understanding of living systems. Looking to Regeneration First Principles, Cradle to Cradle Design, and Bio and Ecosystem Mimicry, students will engage with local and international design clients to tackle a waste challenge and deliver a model or prototype. We will explore questions like: Can we turn this waste product into packaging material or another valuable co product? Can we use an unexpected waste material to make art? Can we create systems which by design make for a cleaner, greener world?Science and Math (SCIMA) courses develop students' capacity for evidence-based reasoning through the study of life, earth, and physical sciences and of computational and theoretical mathematics. In these courses, students learn to recognize and interpret meaningful patterns of information; to assess the validity of empirical claims, distinguishing between opinion and fact; and to understand the sociocultural relevance of scientific and mathematical thinking.
