Hands on Workshop on Teaching Forensic Engineering Teaching Students Critical Thinking by Investigative mindset

When teaching Engineering to students it is important that we not only teach abouthow to engineer new things but also look at the failures and performance problemsfrom an engineering point-of-view. The field that studies this part of engineering isknown as Forensic Engineering. The American Society of Civil Engineers defines thisfield as: “The application of engineering principles to the investigation of failures orother performance problems. Forensic engineering also involves testimony on thefindings of these investigations before a court of law or other judicial forum, whenrequiredAerospace Structures & Computational MechanicsStructural Integrity & Composite
