Sustainable technology / development and challenges to engineering education

Title: Sustainable technology / development and challenges to engineering education
Format: Conference
Publication Date: December 2000
Description: The key challenges faced during sustainable technology development to engineering education are discussed. Science and technology studies have shown that the dynamics of disciplines and technical professions resist deep redefination. Bodies of scientific and technical knowledge are separated by disciplinary boundaries that reflect not only cognitive and methodological differences but also political forces within the disciplines. It is necessary to examine the processes by which technologists are trained, particularly their education about the scope of their profession.
