efficiency, can perform safety & risk analyses and life-cycle assessments, have project management and time management skills, and understand the basics of engineering economics and material and energy balances. 4. An understanding of the impact of underlying systems and environmental/societal policies on the global energy infrastructure. a. … the program should develop students with a capacity for systems-level thinking, ability to assess scale and scope of a project, be familiar with environmental policy and global competition for resources.Though the program is administratively housed in the Mechanical Engineering Department

, and management). The first two years of the program are similar to traditional engineering disciplines.Thereafter, one takes a series of courses that introduce Energy Engineering concepts.Fundamental energy engineering principles involve material and energy balances,thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, heat and mass transfer operations, and physical and chemicalprocessing as applied to energy industries. In addition to these engineering principles, studentsenroll in required courses in renewable/sustainable energy principles. Students will be trained inbasic chemistry of fuels – coal, petroleum, natural gas and biomass; combustion; petroleum andnatural gas processing; electrochemical energy conversion; and energy conversion

projects. While there are many ongoing projects, this paper will summarize thefollowing examples:  Biogas production project for an undergraduate chemical engineering course  Biogas production modeling project for an undergraduate mathematics course  Biogas research projects for undergraduate and co-operative learning students  Bioethanol usage in student competition projects  Bioethanol research projects for undergraduate and co-operative learning studentsA Biogas Production Project in Chemical EngineeringCHME-200 is the first exposure to chemical engineering for undergraduate students. The coursecombines material and energy balances. For a term project students are asked to performcalculations for a simulated dairy farm
