prioritization scheme that is based on resolving conflict between contrasting values. Characterization occurs when the engineer acts consistently in accordance with internalized values. The highest level of the value system then forms consistent behavior at this level under all circumstances.Including the affective domain captures the essence of responsible charge. Simply finding asound technical engineering solution does not fulfill an engineer’s obligation to protect andadvance public health, safety, and welfare. An engineer in responsible charge has an ethical andprofessional obligation to understand and utilize technological advances, and considerenvironmental factors such as sustainability, resilience, the effects of climate

One alternative measureis faculty peer observation. We have developed a novel faculty peer observation protocol focusedon self-reflection and formative feedback for STEM faculty. Engineering faculty have found theprotocol helpful and used the method to expand professional networks

The principal of sustainability does, however, serve as anideological foundation on which the course content for Introduction to EnvironmentalEngineering can be built.Design Project The Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET) strongly encouragesintegration of design throughout the undergraduate curriculum. ABET’s goals along withpositive experiences the author has had with design projects in other courses led to the integrationof a sustainable design project into the course.
