included throughout. This finding is in agreement with conclusions regardingstudent importance and confidence ratings, which show seniors rate confidence significantlyhigher than sophomores and juniors in Sustainable Development and Sustainable Design.CEE departments and faculty should be mindful of when, where and how sustainability isincorporated into the CEE curriculum and should seek to build student knowledge ofsustainability concepts throughout the curriculum, in both Engineering Mechanics courses andsenior design courses. One possible approach to include sustainability in mechanics courses is toprovide context for how the mechanics subject is ultimately essential for sustainable design;developing sustainable facilities necessitates that the

lecture-based classrooms are ill-equipped to facilitate the development of students’ intuitive, visual, andcontextual understandings of dynamic phenomena [6, 7]. As Barroso [6] explained, instead ofviewing dynamics as “a unified body of knowledge built upon a very limited number of basicequations and principles… many undergraduate students see dynamics is a collection of tricks,one for each type of specific problem” (pp. 1-2) to which, we add, many students simply learn byrote in order to pass an exam. Mativo and Smith [8] further tackled the two basic questions thatlinger in many engineering educators’ minds: Are my students acquiring process skills –knowledge of how to employ factual knowledge in practice? And, are my students
