A holistic approach to delivering sustainable design education in civil engineering

Sustainable Engineering Systems – a new approach to civil engineering education

The increasing awareness and requirement for sustainability in undergraduate programmes has led to the development of a Design of Sustainable Engineering Systems (DSES) theme throughout the Newcastle University undergraduate programmes. This case study focuses on the development of the level 6 module in DSES. This module is a 40-credit design-based module that integrates all of the formal taugh...

Shape mining: A holistic data mining approach for engineering design

Although the integration of engineering data within the framework of product data management systems has been successful in the recent years, the holistic analysis (from a systems engineering perspective) of multi-disciplinary data or data based on different representations and tools is still not realized in practice. At the same time, the application of advanced data mining techniques to compl...

Sustainable Product Design: Designing for Diversity in Engineering Education*

Current and future engineers will need to address sustainability’s triple bottom line, simultaneously addressing financial, environmental, and social goals. There is also a need to improve diversity in engineering, both in the communities served by new technology and the representation of gender and ethnic minorities among engineering professionals. We present data gathered from ‘Engineering 10...
