Integrating sustainability into higher education curriculum through a transdisciplinary perspective
ادغام پایداری در برنامه درسی آموزش عالی از طریق یک دیدگاه بین رشته ای-2020 Higher education institutions are among the most influential elements of implementing concepts of
sustainability and sustainable development. Manufacturing industries of all sorts are key stakeholders,
which rely on universities to satisfy the demand for competent workforce. Society also expects universities
to educate our youth and contribute to their self-development by achieving both, scientific and
intellectual knowledge saturation. Among all these missions, today, universities are trying to develop
sustainability curriculums to further increase sustainability awareness and to provide undergraduate
students with a toolkit that would provide them with a competitive advantage in the job market.
Developing such a curriculum would only be possible with a transdisciplinary approach. Therefore, the
objective of this study was to contribute to strategic alignment of higher education institutions and
corporate organizations by developing a course curriculum that integrates modern management techniques
and sustainability concepts with wood products industry dynamics, which also focuses on project
based learning (PBL). Theories of sustainability, lean management, supply chain management, six-sigma,
and life cycle analysis were reinforced with hands-on activities of value-added wood product
manufacturing line during a 16-weeks course. Students’ pre- and post-education awareness of and familiarity
with sustainability, potential consequences of ignored sustainability issues, modern management
techniques, global trends, innovation waves, and industry evolution were compared through a
seventeen-question survey. Results showed that proposed course content was successful at increasing
sustainability awareness at both overall and individual sustainability pillar levels. At the end, 100% of
students were able to develop complete understanding of various modern management techniques and
stated that they feel confident to apply learnt skills to real life issues within their profession upon
graduation. The outcomes of the study could serve as a guide for those looking to develop similar interor
trans-disciplinary courses at higher education institutions Keywords: Sustainability curriculum | Modern management techniques | Sustainable development | Higher education |
