Abstract

Embedding Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) into engineering education is critical to prepare engineers who are both technically skilled and socially responsible. Universities and nations are increasingly evaluated by their contributions toward SDGs, making sustainability a central element of modern curricula. Integrating sustainability not only fosters economic growth, environmental protection, and social impact but also encourages learners to balance technical excellence with societal welfare. Quality education, as emphasized in SDG 4, is achieved when engineering programs move beyond technical training to encourage values of responsibility, ethics, and sustainability in future engineers. Sustainability-integrated engineering curricula require awareness, knowledge-building, involvement, and collaboration attempts. This article covers some important aspects of embedding sustainability in engineering education. With the help of showcasing the activities on sustainability-integrated teaching, learning, and projects, conducted at one of the leading international Pan African universities, this article aims to disseminate the concept of sustainable engineering education and encourages future interventions to establish the field further.
