. This major would have students take an Introduction to Engineering Design class,Statics, Materials, complete an external project, and do a one-semester capstone. Thisengineering curriculum would be supported by math, physics and chemistry courses, includingelectronics and thermodynamics through the physics department. The initial engineering sciencedegree was not meant to be an ABET-accredited degree but a pathway for students interested inengineering to gain engineering training while integrating other interests such as business,environmental science, and data science. This degree was intended to provide strong preparationfor careers in areas such as entrepreneurship, project management, architecture/design,government technology policy

This project focused on introducing students in the Civil Engineering TechnologyProgram to sustainability concepts using the EOP framework. Curricular adaptations wereimplemented for two courses: Introduction to Civil Engineering and Structural Steel Design,both in the Civil Engineering Technology Program reaching 102 students. The two pilot coursesserved as examples to incorporate sustainability concepts into other technical courses within theprogram to ensure the students are well-grounded and prepared to be sustainability change agentsin their future careers in the

The need for periodic review of processes is needed in all fields of endeavor, andchemical engineering education is no different.
