IntroductionRenewable energy related courses are becoming an essential part of engineering andengineering/industrial technology curricula. Many schools are integrating renewable energyprograms or courses to their core curriculum to support existing programs to expose students toenergy systems [1-7]. The nature of renewable energy courses differs depending on the program ofstudies in various departments. For example, construction and civil engineeringtechnology/science programs usually adopt green building and geothermal related classes andprojects [8], engineering programs adopt thermal systems, solar, wind, human power, energyconversions systems, and biomass classes

. This percentage for engineering courses was mere 0.86%. This is unfortunate since theinfrastructure required for online education has been primary developed by engineers.The perceived obstacles in widespread integration of online courses in engineering curriculumscan be divided into two categories: physical obstacles and cultural obstacles. A major physicalbarrier is how to provide hands-on trainings, which traditionally take place in laboratories andmachine shops, in an online setting. However, this may not be a major problem since, contrary towhat one may expect, the data shows that online education is primary “local”. A little over half ofall students who took at least one online course took some face-to-face courses at the sameinstitution
