This description is consistent with the 1987 UN World Commission on Environmentand Development report that defined sustainable development as “meeting the needs of thepresent generation without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their ownneeds”2. These definitions and many others offered in the literature, center around three pillarsof sustainability namely, economy, environment, and society and suggest a need to consider aglobal approach when referring to sustainability that considers economic impacts, the ecologicalview, and a socio-cultural

sustainable thinking is a challenge for education in engineering, but it is essential tothe personal and professional development of an engineer since the demand for labor requires Page 26.1125.2engineers with professional practice, knowledge, and ability to make decisions to meet every daychallenges in their work field. These decisions involve aspects of Sustainable Development (SD)1 like: “the development that satisfies the needs of the people today without compromising thefuture generations”2. The resulting situation at the universities today is that SD integration isoften limited to some specific courses (depending on the lecturers) and that

Global competency can be defined broadly as “having an open mind whileactively seeking to understand cultural norms and expectations of others, leveraging this gainedknowledge to interact, communicate and work effectively outside one’s environment”1.Measuring global competency levels before and after participation in cultural programs maytherefore be a potentially effective method for measuring changes in students’ ability to work ina global environment. Currently, studies on engineering students’ baseline global competencylevels are few at the undergraduate level. This research fills this gap

Furthermore, the processof rethinking a product’s design so that it is more durable or more easily recycled; or so that itcontains fewer parts, less packaging or more recycled content – also drives innovation andquality improvement.This paper describes a new model that identifies sustainability related performance measures forproducts in terms of 1. Sustainable product design by robust design 2. Sustainable design byquality of service. The paper describes items 1 and 2 in detail. To support the theory ofsustainable product design by robust design techniques (item 1), a case study on a laser basedmeasuring instrument is considered. To support the theory of sustainable design

Inthis constructivist perspective the participants’ perceptions, values, beliefs and experiences are ofprimary importance.1 Additionally, constructivism focuses on the individual meaning makingprocess, and individuals are viewed as active agents gaining knowledge about social contextthrough their experiences with the environment.2,3 However, the thoughts that are of importanceto meaning making may actually be unconscious, and thus inaccessible to both the interviewerand

In a given academic year, theUGO supports a huge number of students; some of the support services are provisioned quickly(issues are handled in a matter of minutes or hours), while others require more sustainedinterventions (measured in days or weeks).

Without the innovations that are enabled by change, technicalorganizations are unable to sustain themselves, let alone thrive.

They also suggest that these factors are critical to theorganization’s ability to innovate.[1]Resources include
