ENGR 100 Section 520 - Engineering Wellness: Technologies to Support Physical and Mental Health

Wellness is a critical component of everyday life and includes both physical and psychological health. In this course we will explore research and technologies that support wellness, including wearable sensors. Wearable sensors let us track biometric data, which can be readouts of sleep patterns and emotions. You will learn:
- Physiological measurements related to wellness (e.g., heart rate variability,
electrodermal activity) and how they are measured
- Engineering design process
- Strategies to support your wellness as a student
Engineering 100 is the start of a University of Michigan engineer's journey. Students take part in a real-world project that utilizes the fundamentals of their section's topic. From microprocessors to rockets to food, there are several mediums for students to pick from; all cover the same fundamentals (employ the engineer design process, communicate effectively as an engineer, collaborate in diverse teams, understand and practice professional engineering values).
