The Fundamental Connotation of the Internal Quality Assurance Mechanism of HigherEngineering Education2.1 DefinitionAt present, there is no clear definition of “internal quality assurance mechanism ofengineering education”. The academic circles have conducted discussion around the “qualityassurance mechanism of higher education”, either on the external quality assurancemechanism of higher education, or on the internal quality mechanism of higher education, oron a certain quality assurance mechanism. For example, Louise Morley explored therelationship between quality and power, and investigated the power relationship in organizingand promoting quality assurance

One program website highlighted a university in an Asian country as having “nurturednumerous high impact alumni, including 7 prime ministers and many CEOs for household namessuch as Sony, Honda, Toshiba, Samsung, Nintendo.” Programs to Europe and Asia depictedstudents posing with prominent and touristy structures or architecture like the Sydney OperaHouse, London Bridge, Tokyo Skytree, and the Great Wall of China; whereas, images for LatinAmerica and Africa did not have a stereotypical reflection of engineering. For example, an imageof a program to Africa shows smiling engineering students in the company of local

First isthe need to know the physics of a solar cell, how it functions, and its performance criteria.Second is the requisite knowledge of the converters, such as the charge controller and inverters:their engineering, performance parameters, different technologies, and suitability in variousapplications. Thirdly is the necessity to acquire knowledge of the different battery chemistriesused for the storage of renewable energy and which is most appropriate to specific environmentalconditions such as South Sudan. The fourth identified problem is the proper integration of thevarious components to meet a particular power need. Throughout the course, I broke down thevarious problems
