describes a lightweight approach to incorporate sustainability educationinto engineering curricula. The intention is to complement engineers’ technical knowledge andproblem-solving skills with a sustainability mindset. The first part of this paper describes asustainability designation for engineering majors. The second part of the paper describes the one-semester-hour seminar course that is the gateway to the designation. The third part of the paperdescribes the new textbook we developed to support the gateway course. Finally, the paperpresents some future developments and takeaway lessons. Because curricular design and studentexperience are inextricably linked, we discuss both in this paper.I. Sustainability designationThe engineering

©American Society for Engineering Education, 2023 Implementing Integrated Project-Based Learning Outcomes in a 21st Century Environmental Engineering CurriculumAbstractEngineering education research and accreditation criteria have for some time emphasized that toadequately prepare engineers to meet 21st century challenges, programs need to move toward anapproach that integrates professional knowledge, skills, and real-world experiences throughoutthe curriculum [1], [2], [3]. An integrated approach allows students to draw connections betweendifferent disciplinary content, develop professional skills through practice, and relate theiremerging engineering competencies to the problems and communities they care about [4], [5

However, in some cases,engineering designs and products benefit some at the detriment of other groups [1], [2]. Withjustice issues affecting millions around the world, many engineering programs have startedintroducing modules and themes in their curriculum to educate students on such injustices andoffer approaches to help them address these issues. The environmental engineering discipline isuniquely positioned to recognize environmental injustice, understand its adverse health andeconomic outcomes, and advance ethical approaches and solutions to

Our results suggest that qualitative research methods may betaught to students of engineering by adopting instructional approaches from nursing. In thisarticle, we make the argument that qualitative research methods as part of community-basedresearch is as an essential skill of the nurse+engineer, a convergent V-shaped profession, and wedemonstrate the value of this approach to solve problems of sustainable development such asfood systems.IntroductionAccording to the United States (US) Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), the definition

Thus many students have benefitted from these curricularchange efforts, but students, the target audience of these changes, have not yet played asignificant role in shaping these change efforts.

Engineering for One Planet Framework [1]With a civil engineering program already in place, integrating sustainability topics into existingcourses seemed to be the most efficient approach for developing a holistic sustainabilityeducation. This approach can be practical and effective and can help students link sustainabilityconcepts to their field across their curriculum [2]. An initial review of the EOP framework forthis intended purpose revealed a significant problem, however. The EOP framework consists ofnine topic areas, and collectively assembles 92 outcomes (46 identified as “core” and 46 as“advanced”) described as essential and necessary for preparing graduating engineers [1]. Manyof these outcomes are also phrased such that they possess a
