Baylor University has started an appropriate technology for developing countries initiative that is broad based, with faculty members from the School of Engineering, the Department of Environmental Sciences, the Department of Sociology and Anthropology and the Departments of Biology and Physics. Our initial priorities are generation of electric power for people not on an electric grid and efficient cooking stoves. We are also working in plant disease management and prevention and water resources, assessment and purification.
