New case studies to integrate and promote global issues in STEM

Under the umbrella of the GDEE project, academics from the Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya have published a new compilation of case studies to promote global issues in STEM education. It is an output of the project “Integrate and Promote Global Issues in Scientific - Technical Education”, funded by Barcelona City Hall and implemented with the support of UPC’s Civil Engineering School Teaching Innovation Programme and UPC’s Cooperation for Development Centre.

Specifically, this publication presents a set of teaching materials to enable professors to practically implement in the classroom the cross-cutting competence of “Sustainability and Social Commitment”, with clear linkages to the recently launched Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). These materials are based on real-life experiences and are presented in the form of case studies.
