The course guides students in learning from historical perspectives andconsequences of engineering, in researching and communicating ideas using engineeringresources, and in using practical engineering tools to deliver a sustainable and resilient solutionthroughout the design process. These learning experiences provide a strong engineeringfoundation for liberal studies majors, and particularly future elementary teachers. Anticipatedoutcomes are manifested and measured at different stages. The primary desired outcome of theEngineering Literacy course is that students, many of whom plan to teach at the elementary level,gain a better understanding of engineering. Further, we anticipate that such improvement inengineering

indispensable role in providing the infrastructure that enables society andcommunities to be healthy, efficient, and thriving. To fulfill this responsibility, civil engineersmust be trained to be leaders with an array of socio-technical skills, knowledge, and attitudes.Further, there must be a sufficient number of trained engineers to meet societal needs. Thepresident of the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE), Dennis D. Truax, recently calledattention to “a workforce shortage that’s going to be exacerbated in the near future” and notedthat the ASCE’s Future World Vision (FWV) project could contribute to workforce development[1].

The 2024-2025 CEPC includes new material science, numerical methods,engineering economics, risk and resilience, and diversity, equity, and inclusion curriculumrequirements. The study results indicate that fewer than 23% of civil engineering programscurrently require classes on any of these topics except engineering economics.

Thereby, EAG2ER starts with theexploration of potential industry-university collaborations and ends with the recognition of thesuccess achieved by both students and staff involved in the project.

In the United States (U.S.),electricity theft leads to an estimated $1.6 billion in annual losses for utility companies, creatinga significant financial burden that is ultimately passed on to honest consumers through higherelectricity rates [1]. While this issue is not frequently discussed in the U.S., its financial andoperational impacts are felt across the energy sector [2]. The challenge lies not only in themonetary losses but also in the inefficiencies and operational difficulties introduced by electricitytheft, which compromise the reliability and resilience of power grids.Globally, electricity theft is recognized as a pervasive problem, particularly in developing
