planejamento da cultura


Explanation:

to engineer (verb) = to arrange for something to happen (Macmillan)

to engineer (verb) = to plan and direct (WordNet)


Minha sugestão seria traduzir engineering como planejamento.


É só para deixar mais uma alternativa, além das ótimas sugestões deixadas pelos colegas!

Obs.: Talvez seja interessante colocar um verbo antes - fazer o planejamento da cultura.

Ou então usar planejar: planejar a cultura
