Introduction
Good engineering practice ensures that execution of new equipment is very common in every
business sectors that need to be maintained by competent engineers. Engineers play an essential
role in sustainable development and mitigating global challenges such as rapid population
growth, depletion of resources, and damage to the ecosystem, and environmental pollution. In
my perspective, engineering achievements were maintained without concerning their influence
on economic, environmental, and social-natural systems. I am concern about our planet, which
are facing problems and expected to increase in the future. They need to revisit their mindset
and embrace a new mission statement in order to contribute towards the equitable, sustainable,
and stable world (Becker et al., 2016). In the following, an effort has been made to discuss the
engineers’ roles as well as responsibilities to maintain sustainable development. In addition, the
discussion has also been made on sharing information and documentation with everyone.
Learning Outcome 3: Explain the engineer roles and responsibilities to generate
sustainable development
What?
Sustainability is defined as a characteristic of a process that can be managed at a specific level.
It tends to better engineering practice such as generating the level for the air quality standards to
improve the quality of life for the people. It is a process to decision making generating the
interrelation and influences of social, environmental, and economic aspects of future
generations. Therefore, I defined sustainability engineering effective, as there is a need to
replace existing innovative technologies in the future to transform the industries and prevent the
environment. In simple words, the process generates influence on the generation and
environment in the future, which can satisfy their needs and expectations. The concept of
sustainability can be best illustrated by the procedure to design an operating system in the
business that can never impact the environment. Therefore, because of the rapid utilization of
technology in the manufacturing procedure, the environment often influenced. It is very
important for engineers to utilize new technology that can enhance productivity by generating
the sustainability of the environment. In respect to engineer, it is my prime responsibility is to
utilize resources and energy in an effective manner (Poff et al., 2016).
So What?
I identified that maintaining sustainable values and achieving them is the important aspects of
the development of the engineer. It positively impacts in the manner that it generated trust as the
need to keep promises and integrity, which is the basis of motivating them. I have also
recognized that I need to be fair with every team member so that they also always listen to you

and does not blame you in critical conditions of ethical conflict and solution can be generated
despite being rigid in matter of opinion. As the projects develop, the engineer can become
engaged in the regional as well as local activities where their knowledge and understanding and
knowledge might be important for sound decision making (Broman and Robèrt, 2017).
I have also identified negative impacts in the manner that engineer pay less attention to the
people needs and preferences as well as does not increases efficiency so that people can utilize
their time to meet their needs, which negatively impacts the ecological services they require.
They also generate less improvement in an integrated framework of material, man, and machine
form the utilization of local technological standard, which they can use towards sustainable
development. So, it is very important for generating ecological innovation, green economy, and
automated technologies, which is significantly nowadays (Rao and Tilt, 2016).
What else?
So, I have identified various roles and responsibilities while working with my team on the
project. I am pleased to identify the problems as well as risk, which are associated with the
project. Various student engineers have defined their roles as well as responsibilities for
effective learning and development. I also have to understand the purpose and aim of the team
project in order to build, maintain, design, operate, plan, and manufacture consistent changes. I
need to cooperate with the team members to build motivation and make sure they maintain
effective communication in the project. I understand sustainability in the method of the
operating and designing framework, which utilizes energy and resources in a sustainable
manner (Bosselmann, 2016). For example, I maintain three core standards, which are fidelity,
honesty, and self-discipline, which have an influence in which manner I live and work. I am
very thankful to the employees in gaining trust from the public. Through honesty, I exercise
fairness and truthfulness, and sincerity in each activity. Self-discipline assists me to direct
reasonably and maintain engagement in every aspect. Through fidelity, it motivates to maintain
strong brand engagement towards other employees.
What Now?
Currently, I have discovered that some responsibilities are integrated with management and
other functions, which have analyzed the customer needs recommending an effective solution to
them.
For example, sustainability has assisted to reduce the threats of air pollution in Australia with
