Sustainable Engineering Education STEMed

Sustainable Engineering STEMeducation addresses the Grand Challenges of Engineering, outlined by the National Academy of Engineering (NAE), directly related to sustainability through the integration of these challenges into the undergraduate engineering curriculum via sustainable engineering modules. Our modules were created in collaboration between Arizona State University and University of Pittsburgh professors and employ experiential learning to actively involve students in a real, rather than abstract, experience with concepts and applications related to the NAE’s sustainability topics. These modules are designed to engage a diverse array of interested students by establishing contextualized linkages between module content and the contributions an engineer makes to solve complex global issues through multidisciplinary, systems-thinking innovation.

 

The developments of these modules and related materials have been generously supported by:
