This review includes the packaging of three coursesand fourteen modules on topics from green building to life cycle assessment to appliedsustainability topics for engineers. In addition, we present the dialogues and criticalcollaborations that have lead to a successful first two years in establishing a stable network toexplore both the stand-alone and module methods. Ultimately, through this TUES 2 researchproject, we aim to develop succinct recommendations regarding best practices for universitiesintegrating sustainability and systems thinking into engineering curricula.Summary of

The goal of this research effort was to extend the pedagogy of hands-on learninginto the ME and AE curricula, tackling mechanical and thermal applications. This paper gives anoverview on those activities as well as efforts to assess the effectiveness of the learningenhancements. Furthermore, because the hands-on experiments are often used in a collaborativeway in student teams, the research has also studied the role of gender and ethnicity in the studentteams, developing best practices for building effective teams formed from diverse students.1.
