Engineering not only shapes our world today but for lifetimes to come. Excellence in engineering embeds social, economic, and environmental considerations from day one. Engineering for One Planet makes it easier for educators across disciplines to prepare future engineers for excellence.

The EOP framework surrounded by icons from the framework sections.

EOP’s teaching tools and grant programs support rapid, multidisciplinary curricular innovation for a more sustainable future.

And counting! Faculty have used free EOP resources to create or modify hundreds of core and required engineering courses. You can too, no matter the discipline.

Since launching EOP in 2020, over 50 grantees have impacted more than 36,000 students.

The Lemelson Foundation is co-funding up to $3M over three years with the U.S. National Science Foundation (NSF) to support EOP-aligned engineering education projects.

I am using the EOP Framework in my courses both as a way to incorporate sustainability-focused content within existing courses and a means to create new courses that center sustainability. Similar to skills like communication and teamwork, which are part of the EOP Framework, it’s no longer acceptable to only cover sustainability in elective courses – it needs to be incorporated throughout the curriculum.
