Most students indicate that if sustainable design makesthem more marketable or is required for employment they would embrace such practices.IntroductionIn current discourses regarding environment, global climate change, and other sustainabilityissues, one common assumption is that humans will be able to rely solely on engineeringsolutions to solve environmental predicaments. However, even though the discipline ofengineering has been charged with creating solutions to global environmental problems, theculture of engineering is not currently, singularly focused on or equipped for innovatingsolutions to sustainability challenges. Some “green” focused engineers are working on designingnew technologies with an

As state legislatures have forced civil engineering programs to fit Page 11.1260.4into 120 or 128 credit hour programs, there is little room for creativity or innovation after all ofthe mandatory requirements have been met. As technology has expanded, engineering hasbecome more interdisciplinary and the expertise required goes far beyond the traditional civilengineering sub-disciplines.
