Examples were sharedby faculty who had already begun to incorporate sustainability concepts into their courses.During the workshop, the participants planned concrete changes to their own courses anddiscussed changing the curriculum across the 4 years of the undergraduate experience. BackgroundTraditionally, sustainability has not been part of the standard engineering curriculum. Bysustainability we mean meeting human needs (current and future) within planetary boundaries,covering social (including diversity, equity, and inclusion, DEI), environmental, and economicaspects. As an additional challenge, various disciplines across the campus are siloed, so thatstudents in business, the arts, engineering

Applying PM skills to researchbenefits both the student and their research team by improving time management, taskcompletion, and communication. Ultimately, we anticipate that PM skills will increase students’likelihood of completing their degrees and equip students with transferable knowledge for theirfuture work.To assess the effectiveness of the course in meeting our goals, we developed a comprehensiveevaluation plan that included pre- and post-class surveys. These pre- and post-surveys askedstudents to rate their familiarity with and use of PM skills.
