the pastfew years at the University of Canterbury in New Zealand. The course is required for students inthe civil engineering and natural resources engineering bachelors’ degree programs. The coursewas developed based on input from the Institution of Professional Engineers New Zealand(IPENZ). Unlike in the U.S., an engineering degree in New Zealand does not require asubstantial general education component. Course topics include engineering history,investigation of failure cases, teamwork, ethics, risk management, and engineering today andtomorrow. This paper details the development of the course to date and its associatedassessments, and discusses lessons learnt in teaching professional engineering skills in thisformat. It also compares

PtD has been required in Europe for over two decades but adoption in the U.S. has beenslow. This paper provides overviews of the PtD concept and process and identifies thechallenges to the diffusion of PtD, peer-reviewed educational resources on PtD, and ways thatPtD could be added to individual civil engineering courses. It is suggested that PtD provides acompelling context to teach related topics, including engineering ethics, social sustainability,integrated design and construction, life cycle safety, and comparative public

While present-day civil engineers are stillresponsible for such socially-responsible domains, civil engineering now exists as a professionthat is acquired through a formal education process that is deeply rooted in and influenced by thehistorical advancements of the discipline [3-10].Today, the education of undergraduate civil engineering students is largely shaped by thebehaviors, practices, and knowledge that have been established and are valued by the discipline’sgoverning professional societies.

A Professional Engineeringlicense (PE) allows a civil engineer to sign and seal engineering documents for private or publicprojects. A PE, or a “Professional Engineer”, is respected as an ethical and competent publicservant. In order to obtain a license from a particular state’s licensing agency, an engineer mustcomplete a four-year engineering degree from an accredited program, pass two thorough state-specific exams, and complete four years of engineering work
