But, are these professionalsprepared for that challenge? According to previous research, Colombian student andprofessionals of Chemical Engineering consider that they do not perceive themselves as activeagents in the solution of social problems like poverty or armed conflict. Alike, when it wasinvestigated, in a later study, where they think this inaction comes from, the general answer wasrelated to the weak or nonexistent education in human or social

ERCs:8 • There is a national need for education of interdisciplinary, team-oriented PhDs. There is a collective alarm at the continued production of graduates at all levels who are totally untrained in team research and often openly antagonistic to industrially relevant research. • The goal of the ERC education programs is to develop a team-based, research- inspired, and industrial practice-oriented culture for the education of graduate and undergraduate students that will produce engineering leaders for the future.We propose that our program is directed at doing exactly that – creating interdisciplinary,team-oriented BS and PhD programs in which students will design the innovative,sustainability related products

Their sophomoreyear, the teams develop a research proposal based on an approved research question and performa literature review. In the third year, students are encouraged to study abroad and continue toperform research on their approved topic.

It is interesting to note, however, that resources such as design guides, standards, andother resources that a practicing engineer may look to for design guidance were not mentioned ordiscussed. This may point to an opportunity to increase students’ awareness of such resources,where to find them, and how they can be used. Theme 4.
