©American Society for Engineering Education, 2024An ecological engineering (EcoE) body of knowledge to support undergraduate EcoE educationAbstractEcological engineers are increasingly needed to contribute to the design of “nature-basedsolutions,” “engineering with nature,” and similar calls for circular, resilient systems. With thisdemand comes a need to formalize and grow the number of educational programs to train the nextgeneration of ecological engineers. As part of the effort to meet this need, the American EcologicalEngineering Society (AEES) formed a Body of Knowledge (BOK) Committee with the specifictask of identifying the knowledge, skills, and abilities that academic programs should incorporateinto an undergraduate Ecological Engineering

Individual courses must support the outcomes ofthe program and sufficient coverage of topics is critical for the success of the program and thestudents. The challenge in key topical areas is to balance the conflict between the limitedavailable time and the breadth and depth of topics. One topical area is electrical systems, whichencompasses electrical engineering concepts for the general engineer. Required topics for anelectrical systems course could include basic circuit concepts

Knowledge Management System (KMS) for theconstruction and engineering industries is a new and exciting area of study, and wikis are a formof electronic KMS. In the last few years there have been studies done on the use of KMS as itrelates to a construction or engineering company’s internal tacit knowledge capture,collaboration, and retention. But little has been researched in the use of these technologies in theeducation sector. If the construction industry is using these types of technologies as a part ofnormal operations, then construction academic programs should
