at the University of The University ofTexas at El Paso, with support from faculty from the Department of Engineering Management atRose-Hulman Institute of Technology, recently redesigned a Sustainability Engineering coursetaught to industrial engineering students. Traditionally, the course only included modules onsustainability engineering and life cycle analyses (LCA) along with hands-on laboratoryactivities and a class project using software tools for life cycle analyses, but the redesignedcourse implemented this past Fall also incorporated lectures and discussions in the principles ofentrepreneurial-minded learning, and in the principles, tools, and methods for consumer productdesign. Students incorporated ideas and concepts from these
developed using the entrepreneurial minded learning frameworkto train students on innovative thinking, enhance their curiosity about emerging technologies,and improve their abilities to connect engineering and managerial topics to address future worksystems issues with a value creation mindset.The learning objectives of this course are to:1. Apply appropriate industrial engineering tools or methodologies to solve work systems problems that may affect productivity or safety.2. Analyze work processes using work assessment tools and guidelines that help technical managers quantify or interpret the risks of unsafe operations.3. Discuss and analyze organizations’ work systems and propose strategies to improve the work system and modernize work

engineering students were the oneswho had this competence more developed since they presented many works during thecourse, and this allowed them to create this competence more. Third, leadership developmentis when students need to lead their final project. That is, students are required to keep theobjective in mind and manage the team and resources. To do so, they need to develop projectmanagement and leadership skills. All the competences cited are essential for industrialengineering students and leaders. Therefore, the way that was approached in this universitycould be replicated in industrial engineering courses. Finally, all these actions are to buildconfidence in engineering students so that they can solve engineering problems in theexternal
