One of the introductorycourses in the civil engineering program is a broad-based infrastructure engineering course thatincorporates multiple engineering disciplines. The course exposes students to foundationalconcepts like landfill operations, conventional water treatment methods, electrical transmissionand distribution, and traffic flow theory, while being adaptable

current curriculum?Another question that seems to be pertinent is how do students learn best? There is muchresearch and discussion on the topic, but most educators generally agree that studentslearn best anything that they experience themselves as well as normally do repetitively.Many engineering educators have homework, design projects, and mid-term exams, andmany times topics are tested again on a final exam. This process allows the student tofirst wrestle with the concept at their own pace in a homework assignment where theycan collaborate with others before being asked to test their skills within a timed eventsuch as an exam. Learning by doing is the primary basis behind the growth of project-based learning (PBL) opportunities.4 Some programs

To address theseshortcomings, we are incorporating sustainability and resiliency conceptual threads and activitiesthroughout our curriculum, from our first-year engineering course through senior design.To understand the effectiveness of this initiative, at the beginning of this project we conductedinterviews with senior civil engineering students to collect baseline data on our current students’views and understanding of sustainability and responsibility.
