In particular, we explore the interface of “human” and “natural” andconsider health as a complex concept that includes the body, mind, and spirit of people as well asthe breadth of natural ecosystems upon which humanity depends.An existing module in an existing course was modified to include two theories from nursing.

Areas of experience, water floods and CO2 floods field performance and development, hydrocarbon storage caverns, CO2 source fields. The type of work I enjoyed the most was the development and implementation of plans to either improve field performance or expand field production. Nack for working with teams/groups of different backgrounds to achieve a common goal. Since 2006, first as a part-time instructor and after 2019 as a full-time lecturer teaching in the Petroleum Engineering Department at Texas Tech, the goal of my classes both sophomore and senior levels is to prepare young minds to become strong engineers capable of working

While further research and time is needed to assess post-graduation outcomes and thetypes of engineering careers these students ultimately enter, the initial indications are promising.These findings support the replication and adaptation of this model across other institutions,suggesting that such educational interventions can

The emotional challenges from the high level of stress due to the rigorous coursework inthe early engineering curriculum can be mitigated when students feel supported. Another studysuggests that helping students obtain a growth mindset can also help with their resilience to viewchallenges and setbacks as opportunities for growth are more likely to persevere [10]. In 2018, the CEE program identified that approximately 50% of the students who initiallyenrolled in the major as first semester freshman completed their degrees within CEE. The studentswho left the program switched their majors to other degree programs at the institute during

Many of those students spoke about experiences in high school, a handful spokeabout middle school experiences, and one student even claimed to have made up his mind on thecivil engineering major as early as elementary school. The student with the elementary schooldecision stated: “My initial exposure to civil engineering, and likely my main motivation for choosing it began in elementary school.

Of these, 65% had a steel structure in mind andused GenAI for the write-up, while the remaining students relied on GenAI to select a structurefor them. As a result, 19% of the submissions focused on the Sydney Harbor Bridge, which mayreflect a bias in the AI’s suggestions.

When considering bias in engineering, social bias, like racial and gender bias, typicallycome to mind. Investigation into these biases are thorough (Eddy & Brownell, 2016; Ohland et al.,2011; Williams et al., 2016) and increasing awareness of them is warranted. But considered lessfrequently is the role that cognitive biases play in engineering design (Carmichael, 2020;McDermott et al., 2020; Mohanani et al., 2020). Cognitive bias refers to the variations in thinkingand decision-making that occurs between individuals when presented with the same information.Just some examples of cognitive bias in engineering include ownership bias: the preferencetowards one ideas over the ideas of others (Toh et al., 2016; Zheng & Miller, 2019

teaching approach becomes an implicit strategy recognisably when topics are not directlyrelated to sustainability. In this instance, a common approach was to position engagement withsustainability via a systems perspective that could influence any area of civil engineering. Oneeducator illustrated this indirect route as follows: In our unit, what we try to do is to embed not directly, but everything we talk about is closely related to sustainability. We want students to have this in mind when they design the roads and in the construction of the road. (Educator C, Australian University)Educators perceive sustainability could be connected to any engineering topic covered in thediscipline-based units. This was particularly visible

During game play, hazards will continue tostrike the community and lead to newly damaged components, which is a challenge. Throughoutthe game, each team responds to the challenges by making decisions regarding repairing andretrofitting electric system components all while keeping the previously outlined objectives inmind.
