Due to rapid industrialization and economic growth, engineering and management education is developing faster. Sustainable development has been an important topic for the last decade and will continue to be a critical issue into the foreseeable future. The impact and importance of sustainable development has not been covered in engineering and management Curricula. The understanding of sustainability engineering, however require a greater maturity than that of most engineering and management discipline.
