of implementing SDGs into curriculum. Not only will a wide variety of topics beingrained into engineering education, but student experiences must reinforce this learning.Options exist to create a “living laboratory” out of the campus “for the implementation anddeployment of [SDGs]” [13]. Implementing SDGs into project work often demands localizedand unique solutions acknowledging the greater system which any project exists within. Asystems thinking and entrepreneurial mindset offers the potential to identify needs and designinnovative solutions in the realm of sustainability. SDG-oriented course learning objectives candirect and motivate inclusion of topics of sustainability within course material and teachings[14].As with any topic of

and Computer Science at Ohio Northern University, where he currently teaches first-year programming and user interface design courses, and serves on the college’s Capstone Design Committee. Much of his research involves design education pedagogy, including formative assessment of client-student interactions, modeling sources of engineering design constraints, and applying the entrepreneurial mindset to first-year programming projects through student engagement in educational software development. Estell earned his BS in Computer Science and Engineering degree from The University of Toledo and both his MS and PhD degrees in computer science from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.Dr. Micah Lande, South

. Additionally, I have used my role as a College ofEngineering Peer Leader to present about sustainability to first and second year engineeringstudents and am currently working on a personal project that will make all plastics clean andrecyclable. I take pride in the things I have achieved and the goals I continue to work towards,and they have been catalyzed but also hindered due to institutional and cultural aspects cominginto play. In one way, being a part of a large institution with public goals of helping their studentsin any way possible has helped thrust my recycling bin project forward in many ways. One of themost impactful of these is the offering an entrepreneurial institute to all students. Here, studentscan come in with an idea for a product
