institutional barriers preventing interdisciplinary courses, an already full curriculum,resistance to curriculum change, and lack of knowledge of social sciences and other disciplinesamong engineering faculty and students. To overcome these challenges, a variety of approacheshave been designed to infuse sustainability concepts and techniques into engineering courses andcurricula3-16. These ideas include actions such as modifying learning objectives to includesustainability perspectives, incorporating sustainability knowledge and skills into learningactivities, exposing students to sustainability ideas using co-curricular experiences, and creatingnew learning modules and even entire courses.One general problem that has been difficult to overcome in

Essential attitudes include honesty, commitment, a healthy work ethic andrespect for others.21Other professions define attitudes for effective practice.

They focus onthe application, and possibly the integration of previously acquired knowledge. Projects may becarried out by individuals or small groups. Project-organized curricula use projects as thestructuring principle of the entire curriculum, with subject oriented courses eliminated or reducedto a minimum and related to a certain project. Students work in small groups with a project teamof teachers who are advisers and consultants. Projects are undertaken throughout the length ofthe course and vary in duration from a few weeks up to a whole year. In present day engineering,a completely project

often have trouble internalizing the concepts in consistently applicable ways1 . Mohr’s circle diagrams are often used as an important tool for visually representing therelationship between stresses and strains within a material. Indeed, Mohr’s Circle has beenidentified as a “threshold concept” in engineering: a critical concept that integrates multipleimportant modes of thinking within a discipline 2, 3. However, because these threshold conceptsare often complex and difficult to learn, they require careful teaching approaches to ensure thatstudents are able to combine ideas and navigate the complexity effectively. Computational toolsare sometimes employed to help teach or illustrate the Mohr’s circle technique through computersimulation, but

This area represents an opportunity for further study.This study concludes that the content and format of the credentialing course needs to change.

Seismic isolators or bearings are a popular means ofprotecting a structure against earthquake forces and have been used for over a century with thegreatest progress made in the past 50 years. It relies on the introduction of an isolator, i.e., ahighly flexible layer between the structure and the ground, increasing its fundamental periodproducing rigid body motion. This design is effective for improving structural integrity. Thenumerous isolators available are categorized as elastomeric or friction isolators. Elastomericisolators are made of a rubber-like material that uses elasticity and plasticity to dissipate energy,while friction isolators use the frictional coefficient of the surface
