An ARK on the SEE: Sustainability, Energy and the Environment

这个工程教育研究奖给北卡罗来纳州州立大学将解决能源和环境问题，在创建学术和非学术论坛，学生有望学习和与专业人士互动。该项目由三个主要部分组成。第一个是课程编制，将编制教学单元，并编制或修改课程，以纳入可持续性内容。第二个将加强现有的REU计划在绿色化学工程和可持续发展，能源和环境。该项目的第三个组成部分将是编制网上教学材料。将对现有技术进行评估，以扩大学习社区，使学生能够与来自行业，政府和校友的代表联系，进行专业发展和数据交换。拟议的工作将通过整合可持续发展概念和经验来改善工程教育，以便学生为未来的工程工作做好更好的准备。

This engineering education research award to North Carolina State University will addresses energy and environmental issues in creating academic as well as non-academic forums in which students are expected to learn and interact with professionals. The project is composed of three main components. The first is curriculum development, where instructional modules will be prepared and courses will be developed or modified to include sustainability content. The second will enhance the existing REU programs in Green Chemical Engineering and Sustainability, Energy and Environment. The third element of the project will be the development of web-based instructional materials. Existing technologies will be evaluated to extend learning communities so that students can be connected with representatives from industry, government and alumni for professional development and data exchange. The proposed work will improve engineering education through integration of sustainability concepts and experience so that students will be better prepared for engineering jobs of the future.
