While information transfer remains a part of the task, theneed to develop creative and innovative thinkers ready to engage in the challenging professionalmarketplace evolving due to “globalization, sustainability requirements, emerging technologies,and increased complexity”1 is paramount.Instructors must then consider the most effective classroom approach not only to transmittechnical subject matter, but also to foster creative and inquisitive minds that can somedayresearch complex problems and

Multidisciplinary Term Project in Low Level CoursesAbstractCurrent engineering students need to be equipped with a wider knowledge base in terms ofenvironmental, economic, and social attributes of engineered systems, work, and materials.Sustainability is a perspective that can be introduced in early classes and not only as a technicaltopic in upper level classes. Lower level sustainability courses can be related to the knowledgegained in the required math, science, humanities, and social sciences through “mind mapping.”This paper presents a comprehensive term project entitled “Greening the Engineering Building”that was utilized to simulate sophomore civil engineering students’ interest in green buildingsthrough the development of a sustainable alternative

To meet the problems of tomorrow, civil engineers need to be creative, be able to think critically and have analytical thinking skills. …the ability to create/innovate -- to try to do what has not been done -- is at the heart of engineering, whether one is involved in practice or academia. From Day 1 of their formal education, the CE student should see the value of and learn how to have to develop a problem- solving and creative/innovation mind set. Consider a creativity/innovation outcome and/or a creativity/innovation thread throughout the rubric.
