ESD 10: Introduction to Technology and Policy
3.00 Credits
Massachusetts Institute of Technology
Frameworks and Models for Technology and Policy students explore perspectives in the policy process - agenda setting, problem definition, framing the terms of debate, formulation and analysis of options, implementation and evaluation of policy outcomes using frameworks including economics and markets, law, and business and management. Methods include cost/benefit analysis, probabilistic risk assessment, and system dynamics. Exercises include developing skills to work on the interface between technology and societal issues; simulation exercises; case studies; and group projects that illustrate issues involving multiple stakeholders with different value structures, high levels of uncertainty, multiple levels of complexity; and value trade-offs that are characteristic of engineering systems. Emphasis on negotiation, team building and group dynamics, and management of multiple actors and leadership.

ESD 120J: Sustainability Science and Engineering
3.00 Credits
Massachusetts Institute of Technology
Introduces and develops core ideas and concepts in the field of sustainability science and engineering from an engineering systems perspective. Takes an interdisciplinary approach to discuss case studies of sustainability systems research. Exposes students to techniques for sustainability research across engineering, natural and social science disciplines. Term projects focus on applying techniques.

ESD 121: Mapping and Evaluating New Energy Technologies
3.00 Credits
Massachusetts Institute of Technology
Project-based seminar covers recent developments in new energy conversion and storage technologies. Students debate the merits of alternative technologies based on their environmental performance and cost, and their potential improvement and scalability. Project teams develop quantitative models to inform the future development of these technologies. Models may probe how the impact of a technology depends on assumptions about future advancements in materials or device design. Other projects may develop models for rational design choices ? the selection of a particular material or processing technique ? based on economic and environmental performance and physical constraints.

ESD 124: Energy Systems and Climate Change Mitigation
3.00 Credits
Massachusetts Institute of Technology
Explores the contributions of energy systems to global greenhouse gas emissions and the potential levers for reducing emissions. Lectures and projects focus on decomposing contributions to greenhouse gas emissions, with emphasis on technology related variables such as per unit cost and carbon intensity of energy. Reviews other performance attributes of energy technologies. Student projects explore pathways for realizing emissions reduction scenarios.

3.00 Credits
Massachusetts Institute of Technology
Project-based seminar covers recent developments in energy conversion and storage technologies. Merits of alternative technologies are debated based on their environmental performance and cost, and their potential improvement and scalability. Project teams develop quantitative models and interactive visualization tools to inform the future development of these technologies. Models may probe how the impact of a technology depends on assumptions about future advancements in materials or device design. Other projects may develop models for rational design choices (the selection of a particular material or processing technique) based on economic and environmental performance and physical constraints.
