This will be done by analysing the reports and the learning journey of three multicultural and multidisciplinary EPS@ISEP teams during the design, development and test of a smart billboard, a self-oriented solar mirror and a level monitoring system for waste oil bins. These three projects were conducted within EPS@ISEP, a project-based learning framework dedicated to the development of key engineering skills, namely multidisciplinary teamwork, inter-cultural communication, ethical and sustainability-oriented problem-solving. The involved students contributed, not only, to make cities more inclusive, safe, resilient and sustainable, one of UNESCO’s sustainable development goals, but learnt and practiced together sustainability-driven design, while searching for an innovative solution for a smart city problem. This conclusion is supported by the analysis of the content the three project reports.}, number={4}, journal={International Journal of Engineering Pedagogy (iJEP)}, author={Malheiro, Benedita and Silva, Manuel Fernando and Ferreira, Paulo Duarte and Guedes, Pedro Barbosa}, year={2019}, month={Aug.}, pages={pp. 33–49} }
