internshipprograms as means of building practical industry experience. However, designing courses toinclude cross-disciplinary topics, such as smart grids (SGs), distributed generation or renewableenergy systems (RES) or to keep students from diverse backgrounds engaged can be quite achallenge for instructors14,19-28. In our view, these curricular and pedagogical challenges can beaddressed by bringing research topics, projects and integrated laboratory experiences into powerand energy courses. One of the advantages of these approaches is that the impacts on the existingcurriculum, space, equipment and financial requirements are minimal23-25, 28.This paper describes efforts being undertaken at our university to revise, revitalize and updatethe power
