As a result, a majority of engineering students graduate without adequate training inhow to solve problems, communicate and collaborate across disciplines, and make critical designdecisions (e.g. related to design, materials sourcing, manufacturing, distribution, disposal, etc.),all of which are fundamental to preparing engineers to succeed in their profession and meettoday’s sustainability-related challenges by developing cutting-edge technological solutions thatare not only more sustainable but net zero

While theenvironmental engineering program at Central State University is small, it significantly impactedthe African American population in environmental engineering education by being the firstABET-accredited environmental engineering program in an HBCU and continuously producingminority environmental engineers to the workforce. According to recent ASEE’s Profiles ofEngineering & Engineering Technology, Central State University’s Engineering programs(including the Manufacturing Engineering program) have served minorities heavily (ASEE,2021; ASEE, 2022

well as their impacts on all of society throughthe global context (topics 2-5, respectively, with one module for each topic). All of the first fivecurriculum modules are intended to be generally applicable to students from any engineering,computer science, or other technology design majors, and the design contexts defined in theframework align directly with the contexts described in the ABET Engineering AccreditationCommission’s student outcomes 2 and 4. In addition to the general understanding ofsustainability developed through these introductory modules, it is also critical that students learnto apply these concepts within their intended fields. In the remainder of the SaS Framework,students are introduced to the topics of systems thinking

In addition, gender and prior academic CGPA were found not to be significantlyassociated with the increase in peer learning and collaboration (p>0.05) while class level wasfound to be significantly associated (p<0.05). The findings of this study contribute valuableinsights to the field of environmental engineering education, suggesting that innovative, lesscumbersome, easy-to-use technology when combined with teaching methods can enhance peerlearning and collaboration. These findings may inform future curriculum design and instructionalapproaches to better equip students in addressing the complex environmental issues of our era.IntroductionThe world today faces numerous environmental challenges and
