In : IEEE Global Engineering Education Conference. New York : IEEE - Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2014. ISSN: 2165-9567. Pp. 755-761978-1-4799-3190-32165-9567http://hdl.handle.net/10400.21/4962This paper addresses the role that decision analysis plays in helping engineers to gain a greater understanding of the problems they face. The need of structured decision analysis is highlighted as well as the use of multiple criteria decision analysis to tackle sustainability issues with emphasis in the use of MACBETH approach. Some insights from a Portuguese Summer Course on engineering for sustainable development are presented namely the students 'and teacher perceptions about the module of decision analysis for sustainability.engSustainabilityDecision AnalysisEngineeringSustainable DevelopmentMACBETHconference object
