Spotlight on sustainability: Using projects for integrating sustainability into engineering education

“Projects, and thus project-based learning, offer valuable opportunities for integrating sustainability education into engineering curricula by promoting active, experiential learning through critical and creative thinking within problem-solving endeavours and addressing complex real-world challenges.”

Our Sustainability Toolkit guidance tool Using projects for integrating sustainability into engineering education explores sustainability must-haves in engineering project briefs and details how to write project briefs to embed sustainability.

We’ve provided this and other guidance tools, knowledge tools, teaching tools, collaboration resources and a resource library for you to use and adapt in your teaching.
