The consumption of electronics has increased dramatically in the past decades and so has the amount of electronic waste (WEEE or e-waste). Understanding the life cycle of an electronic product and its impact on the environment, human health, and our everyday life requires experts in different areas, such as engineering, ecotoxicology, sociology, economy, and medical sciences, who are capable of thinking with an interdisciplinary perspective. In this context, we have designed and taught the course Sustainable electronics, eco-design, and e-waste management, whose overarching goal is training and empowering new generations of professionals and users to promote the circularity of materials and the minimization of greenhouse gas emissions in the electronics sector. The course has been taught in flipped mode to ensure a continuous exchange between students and lecturers.
