This focuses efforts toward individual careers and upward mobility in corporate hierarchies rather than collective or systemic change toward safer, healthier, and more just workplaces and worlds. 3.

In this plan, the UN developed 17 Sustainable DevelopmentGoals (SDGs) to address the environmental, economic, and social dimensions of sustainabledevelopment, and provide an outline for specific objectives and targets for metrics of progressfor achievement by 2030. Engineering is one of the fields that has been highlighted as integral insuccessfully achieving the SDGs [4], and as such, sustainability must be integrated intocollegiate engineering curriculum to train the next generation of professionals to meet thesegoals and rise to the future challenges. The Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology(ABET) validates these updates to curriculum with their student outcomes which highlight theimportance of understanding
