. Kim is a curriculum theorist, teacher educator, and narrative inquiry methodologist. Her research centers on various epistemological underpin- nings of curriculum studies, particularly engaging in hermeneutical excavation of the stories of students and teachers around the notion of Bildung, a human way of developing or cultivating one’s capacity. She received the Faculty Outstanding Researcher Award in 2018 from Texas Tech University, and the Out- standing Publication Award from the American Education Research Association in 2017 for her book, Understanding Narrative Inquiry, published in 2016. She has published numerous articles in journals including Journal of Curriculum Studies, International Journal of

, Environmental, Behavioral, Societal,Technological, and Governmental), and it fits nicely with existing topics in civil engineeringeducation.This paper describes best practices for incorporating circular economy concepts in engineeringspaces, along with practical applications in organizational structures within post-secondaryinstitutions, in particular within civil engineering programs. It also contributes to engineeringliterature by exploring the potential benefit of implementing circular economies in civilengineering projects designed for long-term sustainability [5]. This paper provides anopportunity to bridge the gap between education and CE by identifying whether its successfulimplementation can positively impact long-term sustainability decision

discrimination in Chile remain evident, aswitnessed by international organizations' different world rankings and studies. According toeconomic theory, the current engineering focus continues to be project assessment, often withoutconsidering any social and environmental impact.According to [3], the social crisis in Chile in October 2019 demanded equality and finishedabuses, an apposition of a hierarchical society in which a group has greater power or status. Thisdemand is directly related to the social sustainability indicated by the SDGs. Given this context,there is already an approach to equality for students who participated in this study.METHODOLOGYThis research work evaluates the impact of problem-based learning (PBL) on sustainabilitycriteria for

student outcomes of the program“Sustainability Across Sectors-Sweden.” Fig. 1 depicts a logic model for the program, highlighting the connections betweenprogram elements and desired outcomes. The rationale includes engineering workplace needs forglobal perspectives, and environmental engineering Body of Knowledge requirements. Inputsinclude engineering faculty, staff and undergraduates, best practices for short-term study abroad,and partnerships in various Swedish sectors. Activities consist of technical visits of full-scalesystems in Sweden, quantitative comparisons of engineering approaches in Sweden and the U.S.,and cultural and social interaction in Sweden. The impacts of the program include enhancedprofessional skills, additional
