Climate changes, issues regarding energy supply, a desire andperceived security need for energy independence, and uncertain but rising energy prices have ledto an increase in interest, funding and policies that support and promote energy efficiency inresidential, commercial and industrial buildings. The federal government and a number of stategovernments have also valued energy efficiency as an economic recovery strategy 4.As a result there has been significant growth in the energy efficiency services sector (EESS) inrecent years. According to a 2010 study the growth is projected to continue and to accelerateover the next ten

current state of industrial education in institutions ofhigher learning in America. The influence of earlier apprentice programs, which provided youngpeople with an education that prepared them to become gainfully employed in a trade, seems tobe evident in the values and views of modern day industrial education programs, particularlythose in community colleges. Indeed, it may not be a stretch to suggest that many programs incolleges and universities still see value in “hands-on” or “experiential learning,” a desired featureof the modern curriculum.Current Challenges Facing Technology ProgramsGiven the high cost associated with using and maintaining industrial equipment, 8 many schoolshave begun replacing existing laboratories with newer modular

Basic sciences are defined as biological, chemical, andphysical sciences. Most of the engineering management programs meet this criterion through acombination of math, physics and chemistry courses, some with laboratory experiences.Figure 2 3,4,5,6,7,8,9 displays the most commonly required math and basic science courses and thepercentage of the engineering management programs that require these specific courses. It canbe seen that all programs require some calculus, some calculus-based physics and some statistics.Most also require some chemistry, differential equations and a second calculus-based physicscourse

Thecourse aims to provide an introduction to product design with an emphasis on the tools, standardsand methods used for product and part representation, specifications and measurements. Itinvolves hands-on learning and exercises in CAD and metrology laboratories. The class includeslectures, quizzes, laboratory assignments and reports, a CAD modeling project, exams, and in-class participation. The course content covers three main parts: product design and specification,dimensioning and tolerancing, and metrology.

Case Studies: Instructors can use PBL with individual students or student teams when discussing case studies on engineering/technology concerns. Laboratory Work: For courses involving laboratory work, instructors can use PBL when discussing appropriate laboratory behavior and relate that behavior to appropriate workplace behavior. The instructor can relate lab problems to similar problems encountered in the workplace. Employed Students: If there are students who are currently employed, PBL can be
