energy sources into the distribution sector • Use MATLAB to read data, perform simulations and test out use cases for power distribution systems.ABET OutcomesThe course also used ABET Outcomes as a focal point for student learning. The ABET Outcomesused were mapped from old ABET Outcomes (a)-(k) to new ABET outcomes 1-7 using [1]. Theapplicable ABET Outcomes for the course were: 1. an ability to identify, formulate, and solve complex engineering problems by applying principles of engineering, science, and mathematics 4. an ability to recognize ethical and professional responsibilities in engineering situations and make informed judgments, which must consider the impact of engineering solutions in global, economic, environmental, and

engineering graduate course,a computer science graduate course, an environmental science graduate course, andundergraduate research activity. All of these projects were mentored by faculty that were on theEnergy Action Team. These projects are described below, along with the contexts in which theywere implemented, and representative outputs generated by the students.Undergraduate Engineering Design CourseWithin the engineering programs at our university, students receive 13 credit hours of designinstruction. In their third year, the learning emphasis is on technical communication and thefront-end stages of design related to problem clarification, concept generation and evaluation.Topics surrounding engineering economics and ethics are also woven

advised them to design a fuel cell stack system that would meet desired power output,conduct experiments, analyze and interpret data, and solve engineering problems. Before thestudents started the course, the project advisor selected the project topic which was thecontinuation of the 2017 REU summer internship project.The course advisor instructed students once a week on topics including: how to write a projectproposal, share responsibilities, design realistic constraints and marketing requirement, maptimeline, identify professional and ethical responsibilities, present collected data, andcommunicate effectively. Once a week, the course advisor assessed students’ performance oncourse assignments and the project advisor evaluated students’ project

to produce solutions that meet specified needs with consideration of public health, safety, and welfare, as well as global, cultural, social, environmental, and economic factors. Table 1. A portion of rubric for ABET-EAC Student Outcome (2) (4). An ability to recognize ethical and professional responsibilities in engineering situations and make informed judgments, which must consider the impact of engineering solutions in global, economic, environmental, and societal contexts. Table 2. A portion of rubric for ABET-EAC Student Outcome (4) Data also indicate that because of this assignment, among others, some students in the course choose hands-on electric vehicle-related design projects for their Senior Design I and Senior
