In this paper, we propose a robust election simulation model and independently developed election anomaly detection algorithm that demonstrates the simulation's utility.

We designed and built ForageFeeder, an automated gorilla feeder that spreads food at random intervals throughout the day. ForageFeeder is an open source and easy to manufacture and modify device, making the feeder more accessible for zoos. The design presented here reduces manual labor for zoo staff and may be a useful tool for studies of animal ethology.

We propose a multi-step clustering based approach to detect election anomalies that might be indicitive of fraud. We first solve a regression problem to find a group of influential variables, then cluster on these variables to get a set of precincts that should have similar election results. Re-clustering each cluster shows us the outliers.

This paper, discusses the course structure that will help leverage Sustainable Development Goals into engineering curricula and use Conservation Technology projects in the course as case studies for interdisciplinary learning.
