Abstract
A typical curriculum in an undergraduate engineering program logically focuses on producing engineers. This focus can overlook the inherent value of an engineering education as a foundation for becoming a successful leader in many other activities that benefit society ~Bonasso 2001!. This work is intended to stimulate discussion on the possibility of developing a new civil engineering curriculum based on a broader view of what the future may hold for new graduates. The proposed curriculum envisions building global leadership qualities on a framework of civil engineering. Hopefully, the academic community, corporate executives, and government leaders will take an active role in this discussion.
