Abstract: Chen-Ning Yang (1922–2025), a Nobel laureate in physics and one of the most influential scientists of the 20th century, left an indelible mark not only on theoretical physics but also on the sustainable development of science, education, and cross-cultural collaboration. His contributions to “sustainable engineering” extend beyond conventional environmental definitions, encompassing the longterm strengthening of scientific infrastructure, the nurturing of talent, and the fostering of global partnerships that endure across generations. This article honors his legacy by exploring four key dimensions of his work: scientific foundations for sustainability, institutional building, talent cultivation, and science-driven economic strategies.
