Solution
There are many critical roles of engineering in addressing the large-scale pressing challenges
being faced by the societies worldwide. Such large-scale major challenges include access to
affordable health care; tackling the coupled issues of energy, transportation and climate change;
providing more equitable access to information for our populations; clean drinking water; natural
and man-made disaster mitigation, environmental protection and natural resource management,
among legion others. In and of itself, mobilizing the engineering community to become more
efficient in delivering real products and services of benefit to society, especially in the
developing world, is a vitally important international responsibility. Engineering as a human
strive is also facing numerous additional challenges of its own, including attracting and holding
back broader cross-sections of our youth, particularly women; strengthening the educational
enterprise; forging more effective interdisciplinary alliances with the natural and social sciences
and the arts; enhancing our focus on innovation, entrepreneurship and job creation, and;
promoting increased public awareness and support for the engineering enterprise.
