Before receiving a doctoral degree in Chemical Engineering from the University of British Columbia for research on ink detachment mechanisms during paper recycling, Dr. Susan Nesbit obtained a B.A. in History and a B.A.Sc. in Chemical Engineering, then worked as a research engineer studying novel methods of chlorine dioxide production.  Dr. Nesbit is a leader in sustainability education and has designed several courses to introduce students to sustainability concepts and community service learning in an engineering context.  These include CIVL 201/202: Civil Engineering I and II,  which tasks student teams to work with community partners to complete service-learning projects to enhance community assets, and CIVL 445: Engineering Design and Analysis, which serves as the capstone design project for all undergraduate civil engineering students.  Dr. Nesbit's teaching achievements have been cited by engineering educators across North America for their excellence.
