A new course has been developed and offered which focuses upon sustainable engineering. The key elements of the course include introduction to the complex systems, systems engineering methods for complex systems, life cycle analysis, hard and soft system methodologies, failure analysis using rich pictures and reflection upon the impacts engineering has upon both society and the natural world through consideration of the writings of E.F. Schumacher. Cases included in the course focus on hydraulic fracturing and its possible use in Upstate New York and the oil spill associated with the Exxon Valdez.
