摘要：
Our paper explores exemplary educational practices in engineering education from Ireland and Austria, focusing on their contributions to fostering sustainability mindsets among students. By examining initiatives such as miniXplore at the Technical Museum Vienna and educational programs at TU Wien, as well as Green Schools initiatives in both countries, we demonstrate how early education plays a crucial role in shaping engineers committed to addressing global challenges. Through these case studies, we illustrate the intersection of technology, culture and international stability, offering insights into how engineering education can advance the UN Sustainable Development Goals.
