A synthetic strategy for bio-based polycarbonate was developed via one-pot polymerization of renewable monomer isosorbide and dimethyl carbonate using eco-friendly organo-catalysts.
Engineering Design Thinking Engineering design thinking is a topic of interest to STEM practitioners and researchers alike. Engineering design thinking is "a complex cognitive process" including divergence-convergence, a systems perspective, ambiguity, and collaboration (Dym, Agogino, Eris, Frey, & Leifer, 2005, p. 104). Design is often complex, involving multiple levels of interacting components within a system that may be nested within or connected to other systems. Systems thinking is an essential facet of engineering design cognition (Accreditation
