Theserequirements are not trivial.Program: Then I will simply adopt the Criterion 3 a-k as my program outcomes.Expert: Using the Criterion 3 a-k outcomes without modification is probably acceptable but isdefinitely unwise. This practice sends the message that there is nothing special about yourprogram; that you have not given your educational outcomes much thought; and that you arewilling to let an outside agency dictate what you expect your students to accomplish.

However, official recognition ofthe concept in practice has come relatively recently. For example, the ASCE Board of Directorsintroduced the concept into the ASCE Code of Ethics a little more than a decade ago3.Equipping civil engineers at the university level to plan and design sustainable developments,buildings, and processes is also relatively new. Even sanitary and in more recent timesenvironmental engineering, which is a fairly mature civil engineering sub-discipline, focusedpredominantly in the environmental and economic spheres of sustainability with less emphasison the social element.
