, 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

opportunities relevant tounderstanding the social, cultural, economic, legal, policy, and political contexts ofenvironmental engineering challenges” (p. 80). That said, interdisciplinary work is notnecessarily straightforward in the academy as historically designed. As colleagues andepistemologies from different disciplines come together in a variety of ways, the interface can beboth productive and complex [2], [9].Researchers also point to community partnerships and service learning experiences inundergraduate civil and environmental engineering curricula that reflect both systems andinterdisciplinary problem-based frameworks. They describe positive outcomes and challenges ofsuch community-engaged project work, such as students’ expanded opportunity
