Abstract
REEC 120 is a course in sustainable practices and renewable energy systems with an emphasis on global issues. This class is designed for a diverse group of students from Foreign Language, Earth Science, and Technology departments to jointly explore a dynamic topic. The course may be taken in conjunction with a ten-day immersion of culture, earth, and environmental sciences as it applies to sustainable practices and renewable energy systems. Topics include preserving natural resources, cultural awareness of energy needs and consumption patterns, and exploring a unique perspective on our own domestic energy usage.
