, 2016) states “understand the basic principles of sustainableconstruction” as one of the 20 Student Learning Outcomes (SLOs) for accredited Bachelor ofDegree programs in construction. Therefore, a paradigm shift is necessary to educate students torecognize sustainability as a changing constraint in construction.As construction industry demands for graduates with broader understanding of impact ofconstruction projects on environment and overall quality of life, universities have tried to come upwith innovative ways to teach students with knowledge of sustainability concepts. However, dueto already full construction management curriculum it has been a challenge to equip students withvarious sustainable solutions. One of the solutions to this

to makesustainable suggestions, as a result “helping them become more sustainability orientated, andimprove their employability prospects” (Lozano, Ceulemans, & Scarff Seatter, 2015, p. 209).SDE Integration Strategies It is important to have a successful SDE integration in order to best achieve these studentlearning outcome. According to Lozano, Ceulemans, & Scarff Seatter’s (2015) research, thereare five main approaches to incorporate SDE: 1. Coverage of some environmental issues and material in an existing course or courses; 2. A specific SD course 3. SD intertwined as a concept in regular disciplinary courses, tailored to the nature of each specific course 4. SD as a possibility for
