Abstract: | The evolution and current status of sustainable production education (SPE) in the United States is reviewed, both as a discrete
entity and as an intersection of multiple disciplines. This paper (a) examines the current array of compatible and conflicting
theories that guide the alternative approaches to SPE, (b) reviews the wide array of applications to which such theories and
associated methodologies have been applied, and (c) presents a case study of the emerging interdisciplinary approach to SPE
at Purdue University in West Lafayette, Indiana, USA, and its network of national and international collaborators.
