SEFI@work: Sustainable engineers: Guardians of the green galaxy

Talk show series with the stars of the Routledge International Handbook of Engineering Ethics Education

5 March 2025, 13:00 – 14:30 CET

The SEFI Ethics SIG is excited to invite you to take part in the Routledge International Handbook of Engineering Ethics Education Talk Show Series, where 3-4 authors will discuss in a lively format on themes of interest for the community of engineering educators and educational researchers.

Our second talk-show is Sustainable Engineers: Guardian of the Green Galaxy. The talk-show will explore current approaches, lenses, gaps and prospects for a broad integration of sustainability in engineering education. The host is Diana Martin (UCL, The UK), and will feature as guests Olga Pierakkos (Wake Forrest University, The US), Irene Josa (UCL, The UK), and John B. Kleba (Instituto Tecnológico de Aeronáutica, Brazil).

The Routledge International Handbook of Engineering Ethics Education originated as a SEFI SIG Ethics workshop idea at the 2021 Annual SEFI Conference. This became a SEFI project edited by Shannon Chance, Tom Børsen, Diana Adela Martin, Roland Tormey, Thomas Taro Lennerfors and Gunter Bombaerts, who were joined by a team of 108 authors from across the world who collaborated in the development of 36 chapters “mapping” the field of engineering ethics education. It is now time to celebrate together as a community and take stock of key advances in the field of engineering ethics and engineering education more broadly.

The talk-show series which will run between 2025-2027 is coordinated by Diana Adela Martin (University College London, The UK).
