dc.description.abstractEnvironmental sustainability and eco-friendly design are becoming increasingly important in engineering today. This paper discusses green design in the KAIST Freshman Design Program. It is shown that students and faculty members tend to choose green design projects, even when not required. Students have successfully adapted general design processes and formal design theories to eco-friendly design projects by defining eco-friendly functional requirements, constraints, and selection criteria. The use of a more formal stakeholder analysis to address a wider range of environmental sustainability issues has promise. However, these benefits have not yet been reflected in freshman projects. Ultimately, ED100 may be a good model for incorporating green design in a general design course.-
dc.description.sponsorshipLarge project based design courses like ED100 are a tremendous undertaking and many outstanding individuals are involved at all levels of organization. Many thanks are due to KAIST President Nam P. Suh and the Republic of Korea for creating and sponsoring this program; to Dean S. O. Park, Dean K. H. Lee, and Dean Y. H. Noh for their unwavering support for the program; to Prof. T. S. Lee for his outstanding contributions as the associate director of the freshman design program and design lecturer; and to Prof. S. Y. Kim, Prof. G. Furst, Prof. C. Vale, Prof. R. Gordon, Prof. C. Surridge, and Prof. D. Persram for their excellent work in developing and running the communication component of the course. Special thanks are due to Prof. G. B. Olson, Prof. P. L. Hirsch, and the Northwestern EDC faculty for their kind help and advice in the evolution of the course. ED100 was heavily influenced by the EDC and both the course and the students have benefitted immensely from ED100’s relationship with the EDC.en
