Integration Of Climate Change In The Analysis And Design Of Engineered Systems: Barriers And Opportunities For Engineering Education, Juan Lucena, Jason Delborne, Katie Johnson, Jon Leydens, Junko Munakata-Marr, Jen Schneider

Jen Schneider

The goal of this paper is to begin mapping perspectives of engineering faculty on barriers and opportunities related to the integration of climate change in the analysis and design of engineered systems (CC&ES). Although both sustainability and renewable energy have been receiving increasing attention in engineering education for quite some time1, climate change, especially as it relates to engineered systems, has yet to become a widely accepted topic of teaching and research. From recent literature on engineering education and from interviews with engineering faculty, a picture emerges of whether and how climate change is an important dimension in …
