context compels the academia to train a new cadre ofprofessionals properly prepared in those STEM disciplines. Further, current public awareness ofthe vulnerability of the existing infrastructure creates an opportunity to recruit and preparestudents to become those much-needed professionals. The present work offers the conceptualframework of a collaborative effort among Architecture, Engineering, and Construction (AEC)to develop an interdisciplinary program in resilient and sustainable infrastructure. Theframework includes the development of transformational pedagogic interventions and changesthat will challenge the disciplinary splits among AEC. The framework targets values and skillsfor inter and transdisciplinary problem solving, as well as
