Title

Strategic Engineering: Increasing Awareness of Social, Environmental, and Sustainability Considerations in Engineering Work

Description

The purpose of my AHS/E! hybrid capstone project was to create educational materials for practicing engineers that would increase their consideration of the social, environmental, and sustainability implications of their work. To make the materials effective, I chose to frame my content from the worldview of the audience (practicing engineers) rather than from my own worldview. The result is a 60‐minute workshop along with pre- and post-workshop activities on the topic of “Strategic Engineering”—arguing that being socially, environmentally, and sustainably responsible is a desirable business strategy
