* Definitions (translated from MÜDEK Evaluation Criteria for Undergraduate Engineering Programs, Version 3.0, in Turkish):
Realistic Constraints and Conditions (PO3): Constraints and conditions to be considered according to the nature of the design, drawn from a broad range of technical and/or non-technical factors that may conflict with one another, such as economics, environmental issues, zero carbon emissions in design, life-cycle cost, reuse of resources, sustainability, manufacturability, ethics, health, safety, and social, legal and political dimensions.
Engineering Professional Principles (PO7): The local and global standards, norms, rules, concepts, principles, etc. used in engineering practice.
Sustainable Development Goals (PO2, PO6): The 17 goals defined by the United Nations (UN) (sdgs.un.org/goals).
