The Burleson Global Design Group seeks to advance engineering design methods so that solutions lead to sustainable outcomes, with a particular emphasis on improving social impact. Through experimental and ethnographic human subjects research, our goals focus on developing new engineering design methods across all design stages, including problem framing, decision making, requirements engineering, detailed design, and validation. We study a variety of engineering domains across many contexts locally, nationally, and internationally.
