| Abstract: |
The need to address sustainability topics through education curricula interventions is studied in this paper from the practitioner’s view point. The survey results of 307 senior and experienced engineering professionals on the topic of sustainability are collated and analysed. The paper not only emphasises the need for engineering curricula enhancements but proposes some key themes at a macro level. The paper also articulates possible benefits by making engineering education sustainability focused. |
