Introduction to development engineering
Introduces the emerging field of development engineering and its constituent theories, methods, and applications. It is both an instructional text for students and a resource for researchers and practitioners involved in the design and scaling of technologies for low-resource communities. The scope is broad, ranging from the development of mobile applications for low-literacy users to hardware and software solutions for providing electricity and water in remote environments. It is also highly interdisciplinary, drawing on methods and theories from the social sciences as well as engineering and the natural sciences.
