A variety of topics are closely associated withsustainability, including climate change, energy, water resources, and robust infrastructure, toname a few. As such, the first question was: “Should a sustainability class for civil engineers bebroad or focused on a particular subject?” The goal was to help students develop a broadunderstanding of sustainability; meanwhile, it was crucial to offer students some tangible andtransferable skills and an opportunity to practice sustainable design in real-world problems.Additionally, it was important to keep in mind that engineering students often feel morecomfortable with solving numerical problems and finding the ‘correct’ answer, rather thandealing

capability. Essentially, the students had suffered fromscope creep throughout their project experience. In the efforts to create an open-ended, real-lifeproject where students could effectively set their own scope, we actually created a challenge thatstudents could not wrap their minds around. This resulted in long project reports with disjointedinformation and designs. It was evident through the reports that the students had spent much timeon their projects, as individual parts of the designs were well planned, executed, and designedwith proper engineering principles and concepts. However, the students had a difficult timedeciding what to focus on and what not to, which lead to a lack in the overall cohesiveness of the

Engineering Ethics

. Specifically, an engineer creates products and processes that can have considerableimpact on human health and life.Engineers that pursue professional licensure are bound by law to practice in a professional andethical manner that protects human health and life. However, professional licensure is pursuedby a minority of individuals in each of the sub-disciplines of engineering. Accordingly, only afraction of engineering graduates seek and obtain licensure. With that in mind, one might ask, ifpracticing, unlicensed engineers are not bound by law to practice professionally and ethically,what is it that compels them to do so? Perhaps the naive answer might be a reliance on thegeneral “goodness” of human beings. Alternatively, one might anticipate that

Open coding was done on thetranscripts to see what themes emerged from the data. Throughout this process, “like-minded”pieces were put together in “data clumps” and assigned a code, as suggested by Glesne11. Afterrefining and verifying these codes, final codes were obtained and analyzed for frequency andstrength of the statements. This strength testing led to the development of assertions.Each student’s pre and post interview and DAET were compared to see how the students’perceptions of engineering, the engineering design process, and the work of engineers
