Professor Richard Cairncross from the Drexel University Chemical and Biological Engineering Department was recently awarded a Fulbright Lectureship Award to spend four months at the University of El Salvador in Spring 2010. The topic of the lectureship is “Sustainable Engineering - A Multidisciplinary Curriculum for Training the Engineers-of-the-Future.” While in El Salvador, Professor Cairncross will teach a course on Renewable Energy and collaborate with faculty in El Salvador develop a Sustainable Engineering curriculum incorporating perspectives from both industrialized countries and developing countries. Professor Cairncross and the Drexel Chapter of Engineers Without Borders are also involved in sustainable development of a potable water supply system for the small, rural community of Miramar in southwest El Salvador; Professor Cairncross will continue to support this project and explore opportunities for other sustainable development projects during his lectureship.
