Objective:

This paper aims at describing a sustainable technological design competency model for the education of Chemical Engineer students.

Methods:

The authors rely on theoretical methods for constructing a framework and modeling for devising a method for the development of the sustainable technological design competency.

Results:

The main finding is the description of the components and qualities of a three-subsystem model that includes sustainability foundations, nature transforming for producing chemicals, and technological capacity education.

Conclusion:

Modeling the competency developmental process allows to identify the components and main qualities of three subsystem corresponding to motivation, comprehension, and systematization in attaining technological capacity education.
