Table 1 documents the health implications of the six pollutants of interest for thisstudy. AQI or Air Quality Index is a measure of air pollution, which ranges from 0 to 500. Whenthe value is less than 50 or below, it is a representation of good air quality; and when it exceeds100, the air quality is designated as unhealthy. The values close to 300 are hazardous11.The six harmful pollutants were selected for the study on the impacts of covid-19 on air pollution.The research that was conducted by the student interns during their summer internships, as well asstudents in the

, primary champion, Lemelson has played the 2023 ASEE National Conferenceprimary role of the backbone organization in collaboration with VentureWell. Over time, otherstakeholders have started to take on aspects of that role. VentureWell collaborated on gatheringearly stakeholder input, developing the EOP Framework and served as the facilitator andevaluation partner on the EOP Pilot Grantee Program and was the primary designer, participantrecruiter, and facilitator for the Scaling for Impact Workshop. ASEE served the role of granteerecruiter, grant administrator, mentor recruiter, and community of practice facilitator in theASEE EOP MGP. Lemelson also funded and recruited a manager for the EOP Network and

In this paper, we will present the Engineering for One Planet (EOP) Toolkit as ameans to increase access to resources to support the education of engineers who are well-versedin social and environmental sustainability.Engineers and designers impact nearly everything human-made. From consumer goods tohardware and software products to buildings and modes of transportation, their decisionsregarding design, algorithms, source materials, production, distribution, and disposal can makepositive or negative impacts now and for generations to come [6].Despite significant

-level study. PUIs may have limitations on faculty expertise to teach acrossthe breadth of EnvE related topics due to the limited research capacity of the institution. Thispaper aims to document the distribution of EnvE programs at PUIs and adjacent programs (i.e.Civil Engineering) that may pose an alternative path into EnvE practice for undergraduates.Further, preliminary curricular comparison among EnvE PUI programs is presented to provide arecord of current potential gaps in EnvE as taught at PUIs which lack graduate programs tosupplement specialization and provide additional technical research opportunities on campus forstudents and faculty.2.
