reinforced the needfor the civil engineering profession to address the complex challenges of designing, operating,and maintaining civil works infrastructure that is both sustainable and resilient. This need isreflected both within the Engineering Accreditation Commission’s General Criteria and theAmerican Society of Civil Engineers’ Civil Engineering Program Criteria required forundergraduate programs in Civil Engineering to be ABET accredited. By the time of graduation,students must have the ability to apply the engineering design process to arrive at solutions thatare more than just technically sound. Their solutions must also serve to protect the public health,safety, and welfare of society, as well as address the triple bottom line of

Skills ingame theory are necessary to be able to navigate the complexity that climate change representswhich creates a highly uncertain and entirely dependent upon the choices that are made todayand into the future.

challenges will require civil engineers and designers towork with city officials to develop infrastructure resilient to climate extremes while providing economic development.Traditionally, engineering and interior architecture students have had little chance to work in multidisciplinary teamson real-life projects – a critical skill they will need to develop as they transition to the workforce. To address this need,we developed and co-taught two independent courses in fall 2023 which collaborated on a novel service-learningdesign project for the City of Fall River, Massachusetts.The two courses were taught independently because of the different program requirements.

]. While the concepts of “resilience” or “resiliency” are now invogue in engineering academic circles, these are seldom understood, especially in relationship toECD projects. If we want to enhance resiliency in communities through our engineering projects,we have to be careful that our efforts do not become exclusively technocentric. A preliminaryreview of the literature in resiliency in ECD projects shows that most place resiliency as either acharacteristic of the built environment (infrastructure) or as the attitude that engineering studentsmust develop to succeed in a demanding curriculum [10][11]. But how about resiliency as alatent characteristic of communities that can be both enhanced by the way engineers behavewhen working with communities
