Description:

Faculty UTR -Teaching across Northwestern: lessons learned and challenges ahead in interdisciplinary courses

How do you engage students from across the six undergraduate schools of Northwestern in one course? I will present lessons learned from a recent new course on Analytics for Social Good and lead a discussion on outstanding challenges. Topics will range from the logistics of establishing a new interdisciplinary class to creating assignments that build on student expertise.

Led by Karen Smilowitz, Ph.D., Charles Deering McCormick University Professor, Department of Industrial Engineering and Management Sciences
