For instance, the first canon of theAmerican Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) code of ethics was updated in 1996 to includesustainable development3. ASCE’s Body of Knowledge4 recommends that upon completion of anundergraduate degree, engineers should have knowledge and comprehension of sustainability, andunderstand applications of sustainability.In 1996, ABET revised its accreditation criteria from being a set of detailed prescriptiveguidelines to focusing more on student outcomes in attaining certain technical and professionalskills5.

Change agents must be able to read their institutions’ culture,Kezar and Eckel concluded, in order to develop effective strategies for empowering stakeholderswithin their specific contexts. Empowerment can take different dimensions, and there are nobounds to what it looks like. The crux of empowerment is its result, not its process.Why empower stakeholders to develop a shared vision for change?Stakeholder empowerment is not a strategy to eliminate resistance, although it may have thateffect. Its real goal is to preempt ethical issues in a change process. In an age when “most of thecurrent ethical frameworks for organizations, as well as in society

Hence, students try to find contextualized workscenarios such as internships or co-ops, where they can be involved in a real project in acompany. This particular setting provides students with an understanding of the workenvironment and also brings benefits to industry and universities [5]. On one hand, industrydemands an integral formation of individuals that are competent in technical skills in their areaof discipline, but with elements that enable them socially, ethically and professionally.
