The ABET Criteria for Accrediting Engineering Programs require students to use engineering standards in the major design experience. Although there is not complete agreement on what an international standard is, they will increasingly affect engineering design in all areas of engineering. In addition to using international standards in design, as part of their preparation for professional practice, it is desirable that graduates understand how international standards are developed. In this way, they will be better prepared to participate in standards development processes helping to ensure international standards encode best engineering practice. This need is recognized in the US National Standards Strategy which calls for increased efforts to educate future leaders in engineering, business and public policy on the value and importance of standards.

In 1994, the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) updated its Code of Ethics to include an obligation to employ the principles of sustainable development in civil engineering practice and at about the same time adopted a policy on sustainable development (PS 418). The ASCE was founded in 1852; its code of ethics was first adopted in 1915, and for most of its 150 plus year history the code emphasized obligations to the profession and only relatively recently obligations to the general public and by inference social responsibility. Just what social responsibility means for engineers has been an issue almost since ASCE’s founding. This paper explores relationships between the engineer’s social responsibility and sustainable development. These issues are overlapping and there are unique opportunities for Catholic universities to prepare future engineers to better deal with these issues and to contribute to defining new principles of practice for the engineering profession.
