ESE Symposium 2008 Workshop
Biomimicry: Innovation Inspired by Nature for a Sustainable World


The Workshop on Biomimicry with Curt McNamara is scheduled for December 5th, 2-5pm, Purdue Memorial Union South Ballroom.




Participants will be taught the basics of biomimicry:
* The laws of life
* Biomimicry process: the spiral and toolbox
* Levels of biomimicry: model, mentor, measure
* Domains of biomimicry: structure, interface, energy, information, and process
* Exercises to put the concepts into practice

We are limiting workshop registration to the first 30 people. You can register for the workshop here.

Center for the Environment at Discovery Park
The ESE Graduate Program is directed by the Center for the Environment (C4E), one of ten centers at Discovery Park, Purdue University. Protecting environmental integrity is essential to prosperity and quality of life. To protect and enhance environmental integrity, C4E and its more than 130 associated faculty members focus on innovative multi-disciplinary research and education projects. Graduate students are an integral part of these research teams.

Discovery Park was established at Purdue University to create a combinational power greater than any individual strength, and to serve as a catalyst for drawing faculty, staff, and students to reach into other disciplines and projects in order to take Purdue to the cutting edge of academic work.
