There is wide awareness that the engineering profession has a role to play inaddressing global socio-technical problems such as climate change and digital misinformation[1]. At the same time, rapid technological change and other shifts in the labour system mean thatengineers’ workplace responsibilities and career paths are prone to uncertainty and precarity [2].As will be discussed, lifelong learning competencies can enable individuals to navigate thesechanges and challenges in their individual career trajectories and to make innovativetechnological contributions.

She felt as if she had two losingchoices – to come out to her engineering peers, or to remain closeted: The fact of the matter is that I was not willing to live another year closeted but I didn’t have the ability to live as a woman yet. This meant that I would have to come out to my project group without actually living it. Given what I’ve already seen of the culture of the students in the college of engineering, I was legitimately concerned that I would be able to complete capstone without making enemies of my own group. I was scared. I was feeling physically ill at the thought of taking capstone. (Document 4, paragraph 9)Naya

Other courses are purely introductory, requiring no pre-requisites.Especially at liberal arts institutions, most of these courses have used the roboticplatforms as means to introduce the “big ideas” of engineering: iterative design, idealversus real world designs, design tradeoffs, and handling complexity [4].However, while students leaving these courses have had a broad exposure to bothhardware and software as well as a hands on introductions to some of the “big ideas”,they still lack certain engineering strategies and intuitions.

Sustainability concepts are covered as anintegrative component within many introductory and design courses. Critical to thisapproach, sustainability is a required design criterion in the program’s capstone designcourse, CE 401 Civil Engineering Design Project.

criteria require students to apply principles of project management. The proposed requirement is a higher level of attainment in a narrower area. The most important rationale is that BOK2 recommends that undergraduate students develop solutions to well-defined project management problems. Some examples of project management opportunities in the undergraduate program include design teams for course assignments, capstone design projects, and undergraduate research. These opportunities exist in all of the sub- disciplines of civil engineering. As such, the CEPC does not imply that a specific sub- discipline (e.g., construction management) must be covered. • Ethics: The proposed CEPC requires

Designand capstone courses are typically meant to equip students with skills to undertake differentdesign projects and work collaboratively with their peers in small groups, oftentimes outside ofthe classroom setting. Student teams are also required to meet regularly with their instructors'giving students and faculty more opportunities for communication and camaraderie, whichallows for increased learning community facilitation.
