Environmental Design, places an emphasis on design integration, professional andindustry education, and market transformation – both in products and design techniques. Thequestion at hand is how to prepare construction and engineering students for what is quicklybecoming the norm for construction in the United States. Previous research has discussedintegration of curriculum and has found there are no existing standards in place. This study findsthat when sustainability is viewed more in the light of integrated high performance design anddelivery than course development it is more a function of integration than revision. Nocomparative outcome of success was measured. As sustainable construction continues toincrease its market share in the commercial

However,as the practice evolved and became better defined a more substantive education in the materialbecame requisite. Engineers not fortunate enough cover the topic in their university studies wererequired to learn on the job. While this is not always optimal, it at least offered the advantage ofbeing directly applicable and less abstract when applied to real situations. Increasingly though indepth options to learn the material became available in both the undergraduate and graduateschool curriculums. These options varied with some approaches offering separate coursesspecifically addresses BIM and others attempt to integrate the

Contextualizing professional developmentoutcomes by integrating them into existing gateway and professional issues courses providedsignificant improvements in student awareness (meta-cognition) of the professional world3. Forthe cases where no significant improvement was found, observations suggest that in order for theprofessional development intervention to be effective, the course format must be sufficient toadequately develop the instructional intervention strategies. Thus, to aid in this issue, “Mini”modules were developed to provide an additional means of integrating professional developmentissues into the curriculum. In this case, we anticipated the modules being used in capstone designcourses where professional development issues

Initially,student versions of business process simulation software were used for this module. This provedto be satisfactory for several years for teaching students the basics of simulation modeling.However, recently, Senior Project sponsors have asked student teams to provide processsimulation for those senior projects that involve facility layout designs.
