World Sustainability Series,2199-7373"On the morning of 10 June 2015, approximately 125 delegates gathered on the campus of the University of British Columbia in Vancouver, Canada to open the 7th International Conference on Engineering Education for Sustainable Development (EESD15)."3-319-32932-4 Includes bibliographical references.Comparing the Outcomes of Horizontal and Vertical Integration of Sustainability Content into Engineering Curricula Using Concept Maps -- A New Program in Sustainable Engineering: A Platform for Integrating Research and Service into the Classroom Through Global Engagement -- Implementing a Collaboration Activity in Construction Engineering Education -- Implementing a Collaboration Activity in Construction Engineering Education -- Development of a Case-based Teaching Module to Improve Student Understanding of Stakeholder Engagement Processes within Engineering Systems Design.This book discusses essential approaches and methods in connection with engineering education for sustainable development. Prepared as a follow-up to the 2015 Engineering Education in Sustainable Development (EESD) Conference held in British Columbia, Canada, it offers the engineering community key information on the latest trends and developments in this important field. Reflecting the need to address the links between formal and informal education, the scholars and professionals who contribute to this book show by means of case studies and projects how the goal of fostering sustainable development in the context of engineering education can be achieved. In particular, they discuss the need for restructuring teaching at engineering‐focused institutions of higher education and provide practical examples of how to do so. The book places special emphasis on state-of-the art descriptions of approaches, methods, initiatives and projects from around the world, illustrating the contribution of engineering and affiliated sciences to sustainable development in various contexts, and at an international scale.World Sustainability Series,2199-7373Sustainable developmentTechnical educationEngineering—Vocational guidanceSustainable Developmenthttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U34000Engineering/Technology Educationhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/O43000Job Careers in Science and Engineeringhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/T13009Sustainable development.Technical education.Engineering—Vocational guidance.Sustainable Development.Engineering/Technology Education.Job Careers in Science and Engineering.338.927Leal Filho Walteredthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtNesbit Susanedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910254116903321New Developments in Engineering Education for Sustainable Development2512290UNINA
