Participants requested to attend all sessions (non-series)
Prereq: none

The goal of this class is to give students a fun way to discover some of the concepts that chemical engineers learn and how this translates into the problems we solve. Most of this class will be in the lab where we will design, build, and test microfluidic devices, flexible diffraction gratings and devices for 'printing' molecules. In each case, we will discuss the basic phenomena and how this relates to the field of chemical engineering. Freshmen are especially welcome!
