“Peace engineering in practice: A case study at the University of New Mexico”
本文概述了新墨西哥大学在和平工程领域的活动，包括创建新学术项目、应对气候变化等全球挑战，并强调工程师需理解其工作的后果，提出复杂系统方法衡量和平互动。
This article presents an overview of Peace Engineering activities at the University of New Mexico (UNM) School of Engineering (SOE) and Health Sciences Center (HSC). In 2018, UNM's SOE hosted the joint summit of the World Engineering Education Forum and Global Engineering Deans Council. The theme, “Peace Engineering,” focused on science and engineering-based solutions to the world's grand challenges. Outcomes of this first global conference on Peace Engineering include creating new academic programs and opening a wide new area for education, research and innovation addressing climate change , water, health care, food security, ethics, transparency, infrastructure resilience, sustainability, social equity and diversity. UNM Peace Engineering-related activities include the Ibero–American Science and Technology Education Consortium (ISTEC), the Sustainable Water Resources Grand Challenge associated with the Center for Water and the Environment (CWE), the Microgrid Systems Laboratory and Smart City Initiative, the Center for Engineered Resilience and Ecological Sustainability, Project ECHO, the WHY ( W hat do engineers do? H ow the heck do you do that? Wh Y am I taking this course?) Lab the Global Peace Laboratories Network, Peace Engineering minor, webinars and case studies. UNM is collaborating with national laboratories, industry, and academia globally. Engineers must understand, measure, and predict the intended and unintended consequences of their work and products. We summarize a complex systems approach to measure positive and negative peace interactions and provide a path to analytic and predictive tools that link engineering abstraction to real-life world experiences.
