incompletewithout engineers becoming more aware of long-term implications of their engineering work onsociety, especially those concerning how costs and benefits of civil engineering projects aredistributed across different social groups and affect their wellbeing in the long-run [3]. Forexample, it has been argued that engineering education should put greater emphasis onengineers’ social responsibility toward "an equal distribution of rights, opportunities, andresources in order to enhance human capabilities and reduce the risk and harms among thecitizens of a society" [4, p. 10]. Thus, complementary education on social justice implications ofcivil engineering may benefit civil engineering education further.We argue that integration of social implications

scope of this paper is naturally limited due to the focus on only one cohort for eachcourse (the fall 2022 semester). As these changes continue in further instances of the courses, welook forward to comparing multiple cohorts before and after said changes. We will also be able toconfirm if the increased retention rate is maintained. Future work includes further integration offocused team-development and story-driven learning in other courses in the curriculum andassessment of the impact of compounding engagement in EML.Conclusion Teams are not only an integral part of modern engineering, but they also support students’entrepreneurial mindset by providing a space to engage with the 3Cs collaboratively.

While this integration could be done using new elective courses onAI and civil engineering (see [11]), we were interested in relevant topics that could incorporatedinto existing coursework. Our assumption is that the technical details of using AI would becovered in other courses (e.g., data science). Here, we were interested in demonstratingapplications, providing opportunities to interact with and use AI efficiently, and providing clarityaround the ethical issues of AI.AI in the curriculum: Infrastructure monitoringAs civil infrastructure systems age there is an increasing need for methods and tools that allowowners to efficiently monitor and maintain these systems over time

design offers students entering the field greater knowledge andconfidence with the material. To provide students with the opportunity to understand thefundamentals of timber design and construction without introducing an additional requiredcourse into the curriculum, a hands-on engineering design project was implemented in anundergraduate structural analysis course. In this project, students worked in teams to design,analyze, construct, and test a 16-ft long timber truss. Students learned the basics of approximateanalysis, design of axial wooden members and connections, and principles of timberconstruction. The engineering design project has been included in the structural analysis coursesince 2017. This paper presents the six-year evolution of

While another, more specificstudy should be done to determine the most effective way to educate civil engineering studentson biases and how to reduce them in professional practice, we can form an initial idea, basing thecurriculum on existing courses [7],[8],[9],[10]. Using these studies, primarily focused in themedical field, we can extrapolate a few key components of educational curriculum. The maincomponents we found in these studies were: curriculum that had students identify biases incertain case studies or clinical trials [8],[9], small group discussion [9],[10], and evaluation ofstudents ability to reduce bias post-curriculum. In these studies, researchers looked into thecurrent bias training for

Since these outcomes are closely alignedwith ABET criteria for civil engineering programs, this should not prove difficult to do.Throughout the four years of instruction, academia should continue to build understanding ofwhat is ahead for their students once they graduate.

, the PtD idea has gradually gained acceptance in the U.S. [3]. However,the traditional curriculum offered by civil engineering programs in the United States does notintegrate PtD concepts [4]. It has been suggested that the engineering community will notincorporate PtD into the curriculum until the accrediting body, ABET, includes it in either aGeneral Criteria or the Program Critera. The majority of civil engineering programs in theUnited States are accredited by ABET. Recently, ASCE’s Civil Engineering Program CriteriaTask Committee (CEPCTC) added a requirement for the curriculum to include an explanationof safety, effective for the 2024-2025 accreditation cycle.

The students then applied the VSD concepts to a course project that requiredthem to create design criteria that satisfied stakeholder’s needs beyond the original client.
