thirty years, China has developed more and more quickly than any society in humanhistory. Recently, however, government policies have shifted from a primary concern withbreak-neck development to one where public safety is of increasing concern.4 Insofar asengineering is involved in all facets of modern life, here engineers play a significant role: toinsure public safety, it is important that engineers in China engage in ethical practices.At present, courses that deal with the ethical, social, and political dimensions of engineering arenot a central feature of engineering curricula throughout China.

Furthermore, our study willdiscuss the potential for incorporating such a model as part of the curriculum of the engineeringprogram to prepare the future engineers who will be leading technology development andoperation in a different setup from the previous generations.2.

Many students, too, enter engineering, technology,and construction programs with little knowledge of the global applications their degrees canoffer. The Global Solutions curriculum at Indiana University Purdue University of Indianapolis(IUPUI) is designed to expand student outlooks by bringing together students of variousacademic and cultural backgrounds in a multidisciplinary program that explores not only thetechnical solutions to global development issues, but the social and cultural context in whichsuch solutions must

Global Engineering Competencies and CasesWhether working on multi-national project teams, navigating geographically dispersed supplychains, or engaging customers and clients abroad, engineering graduates encounter worlds ofprofessional practice that are increasingly global in character. This new reality poses challengesfor engineering educators and employers, who are faced with the formidable task of preparingengineers to be more effective in diverse global contexts. In response, more global learningopportunities are being made available to engineering students, as reflected in gradual yet steadyincreases in the number of global engineering programs and participating students.1 Manycompanies are also offering professional development

Furthermore, we suggest that fordeveloping countries, and rapidly developing economies, we need to introduce empiricalapproach when it comes to estimating the level of global engineering competency. To this end,we find the approach by Y. Li6 very illuminating and we plan on developing a laboratory-themedassessment tool that would augment the predominantly soft skills criteria outlined in the

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.

Students are indeed exposed to buildingmodels as part of a typical control design curriculum; however, the emphasis of such courses isnot on teaching the rationale behind and fundamentals of adopting Model-Based Design andapplying it to engineering systems. Students learn about pieces of subsystem development,focusing on specific bits of the whole without appreciating the impact a piece or subsystem canhave on the total system.To date, academics have preferred to introduce an understanding and mastery of the “buildingblocks” before putting them into context.
