👉 Excluded engineering, often referred to as "soft" or "non-traditional" engineering, encompasses fields and practices that do not fit neatly into the conventional categories of mechanical, electrical, or civil engineering. These disciplines include areas such as environmental engineering, biomedical engineering, industrial ecology, and systems engineering, which focus on complex, interdisciplinary challenges that require innovative approaches beyond traditional engineering methodologies. Excluded engineering emphasizes sustainability, human-centered design, and the integration of social, economic, and environmental factors, aiming to address global issues like climate change, health, and resource management in a more holistic and inclusive manner.
