Engineering Education in Sustainable Development
Acting for sustainable development: today this injunction is the subject of broad consensus. The good intentions have been widely expressed, and translating these good intentions into concrete targets is the ambition which must inspire all education actors in sustainable development. They need to update and to exchange the objectives and contents of their courses and their teaching methods. Every two years, Engineering Education in Sustainable Development (EESD) conferences give this opportunity to engineering community. The EESD 2002 conference was organized by the Delft University of Technology (TU Delft, Netherlands). The Technical University of Catalunya (UPC, Barcelona, Spain) welcomed the EESD 2004 participants. Institut National des Sciences Appliquées de Lyon (INSA Lyon), Ecole Nationale des Travaux Publics de l'Etat (ENTPE),
Ecole Nationale Supérieure des Mines de Saint-Etienne (ENSMSE) and Centre International de Ressources et d'Innovation pour le Développement Durable (CIRIDD) are pleased to organise the third edition, EESD 2006, in Lyon (France). During the EESD 2004 conference, the declaration of Barcelona was established. It fixed challenges and objectives for engineering education in sustainable development. Universities of technology and equivalent institutions of higher education have to train the next generation of engineers and managers for tomorrow's needs. Traditionally, engineers must achieve the best technical skills. Nowadays they are also required to have more than mere notions about complexity, cross-disciplinarity and multiculturalism, etc.
The EESD 2006 conference will particularly emphasize how industry and local communities will be involved to engineering education in sustainable development.
