“…Different methodologies could be applied to analyze academic programs, such as interviews with students, academic stuff or other actors involved in the curriculum [23], as well as in-depth analysis of the curriculum [24]. Navarro et al [25] suggested using the consistency value calculated with the AHP technique [26] to assess the critical thinking of master's degree students.…”

Teaching sustainability and ethics to engineering students is a challenging but necessary task that has been increasingly investigated during the last few years. In this research, a systematic method to identify the level of awareness in students about sustainability and ethics is developed. Here, it is applied to students studying the Civil Engineering bachelor’s degree at the School of Civil Engineering of Universitat Politècnica de València (UPV), though this method is potentially applicable to equivalent ABET and EUR-ACE accredited bachelor’s degrees. A survey was performed, and data was analyzed using Analytical hierarchical process technique; this technique determines the relative importance of each criterion, as well as the consistency of the emitted judgements, in an objective manner. These results allowed to discover that students do not have a robust opinion related to sustainability and ethics, except those students with previous experience in the construction sector. Environmental and social dimensions of sustainability and ethics were identified as the main focuses to emphasize in the civil engineering curriculum. Finally, actions to boot these principles are also proposed; potential courses where sustainability and ethics concepts could be explicitly included were selected and the inclusion of an environmental budget in the bachelor thesis was recommended, among others suggestions.

“…We need to draw up Chinese trauma care guidelines, training programs like ATLS in USA, or ETC in Europe and evaluation projects such as trauma rescue technology examination. 19 , 20 It is encouraging that China Trauma Care Training (CTCT), initialed by Chinese Medical Doctor Association and trauma surgeon section, is being held successively all around the country aimed to promote the 'Chinese mode' of trauma care system.…”

With the development of modern society, high-energy trauma has become an increasing tendency, which brings a great challenge for trauma care. A well-running trauma care system that is composed by pre-hospital and in-hospital care has been proved to decrease the death and disability rate of trauma patients. However, establishment of trauma care system in China is still at the initial stage. Trauma care systems in China and developed countries represented by the United States and Germany are introduced respectively in this article. Construction of regional and hierarchical trauma center, training of specific trauma care team and performance of integrative trauma rescue model are recommended in China.

“…In some faculties, the time devoted to trauma management training is less than 10 h, and in others, more than 2 months [ 22 ]. Moreover, the resources used in teaching trauma management are also diverse, from theoretical lessons and discussion groups to some skill stations [ 9 , 22 , 23 ]. Trauma Management Courses (TMCs) are sometimes implemented in undergraduate medical education [ 24 , 25 , 26 ].…”

Trauma is one of the leading causes of death in the world, being the main cause of death in people under 45 years old. The epidemiology of these deaths shows an important peak during the first hour after a traumatic event. Therefore, learning how to manage traumatic injuries in a prehospital setting is of great importance. Medical students from Universidad Autónoma performed 66 different simulations to stabilize a trauma patient on a prehospital scene by using a web-based trauma simulator. Then, a panel of trauma experts evaluated the simulations performed, observing that, on average, an important number of simulations were scored below 5, being the score values provided from 0, minimum, to 10, maximum. Therefore, the first need detected is the need to further train prehospital trauma management in undergraduate education. Additionally, a deeper analysis of the scores provided by the experts was performed. It showed a great dispersion in the scores provided by the different trauma experts per simulation. Therefore, a second need is identified, the need to develop a system to objectively evaluate trauma management.
