In this way ABET is formally making a push to include sustainability into all engineeringcurricula. They further this point by the inclusion of the revised Criterion 3, Outcome 5, whichstates [1]: An ability to recognize ethical and professional responsibilities in engineering situations and make informed judgments, which must consider the impact of engineering solutions in global, economic, environmental, and societal contextsThere are multiple valid definitions of

The first course is a 1 credit-hour course takenin the Fall semester where students work on team-based, hands-on activities related to designmethodology, graphical communication, project management, use of numerical analysissoftware, and ethics. The second course is a 2 credit-hour course typically taken in the Springsemester [7]. While the first course focuses on topics of relevance to all engineering majors, thesecond course focuses on design-related activities relevant to the mechanical engineeringprofession and covering the topics of CAD [8], forces on structures [9], thermal energy and fluidsystems
