Assessment for Environment and Sustainability
(Student Outcome g)

1. Give the title/ name of the seminars/companies that you have attended/visited that has
great effect on society and environment. What is the role/contribution of Electronics
Engineer in this issue? Discuss the effect of this role/contribution to the society and
environment.
The seminar titled Cisco and Technologies was great subject for current issue for me.
With the popularity of Internet and the Unified Communications, Electronics Engineering
practices are always present. The big role of an Electronics Engineer in this issue is that
as a profession strictly one with Science and Technology, ECE has the upperhand on how
to engage the trends and innovations in this field. ECEs is expected to be adaptive with
the fast-changing world of Science and Technological field like the Electronics
Communications field. ECEs have a great impact on the society- they innovate and
design new devices and standards that will greatly improve our day to day use of
electronic devices essential for our ease of living. Take Wifi or Bluetooth for example.
ECEs enables the world to embrace the all possible technologies applicable for living life
to the fullest in more simpler ways for the end users.
2. Propose an appropriate professional engineering solution to address social and
environmental problems.
Engineers, since the beginning of its conception as a profession, have been on continuous
act towards handling environmental and social concerns that arise or may arise whenever
new engineering practice, standard or applications are implemented. For example,
engineers on semiconductor industry should have better understanding of the material
science aspect of their ways on maintaining an appropriate and eco-friendly IC
fabrication; so that in that the industry will thrive on years to come because of better yield
in terms of resources availability. On the social issues such as low morale of certain
group of people on using a certain technological device, engineers should propose and
co-think with the right authorities (e.g. physiologists or social analysts) to provide a
better or more convenient ways for the end users to benefit of using it resulting in a good
quality of living whether personal or social.

3. Propose professional engineering solutions in solving societal issues towards sustainable
development.
I think it would be wise as an engineering solution to work on collaborative innovation,
integration, and management of corporate social responsibility. With these on action, the
whole engineering community can support great areas in their work field- bringing
support and desirable outputs in terms of engineering management, research, practice and
social responsibility.
