1938, when the Japanesearmy occupied Tsinghua campus, EAA faculty and students retreated with the entire university tosouthwest China (Kunming), yet most of the laboratory equipment was left behind. When theDepartment of EEA returned to Tsinghua campus in 1946, the Electrical Engineering Buildingremained intact, yet no laboratory equipment was preserved.An option in Aeronautical Engineering was started by Professors S.C. Wang and K.L. Feng, whilethe origin of aeronautical engineering can be traced to Theodore von Kármán’s first visit toTsinghua in 1929, during which he made an unsuccessful pitch of the importance of aviationengineering to Tsinghua leadership. In 1932, aeronautical engineering was introduced to TsinghuaUniversity as a part of

After completing safety training and receiving basic information about lithography,laboratory tools’ use and scientific background of their projects, teachers start their research asmembers of a faculty research group, mentored by a trained graduate student. At the end of theprogram, teachers are expected to prepare and present a scientific poster to summarize theirresearch and a lesson plan that will be implemented during the following school year and submittedto the website Teach Engineering [22].

However, the virtual offering requirement shifted themain deliverables from simply machining a device to developing the manufacturing plans tomachine said device.

transition from thetraditional physical laboratory to the online virtual laboratory. Before the pandemic, we alreadygradually adopted more and more virtual labs. Students log in to a virtual environment,consisting of one or more virtual machines, to perform hands-on exercises. They do not need togo to an on-campus lab at a fixed time. Students can do the virtual labs at any place and at anytime. Virtualization makes it possible for students to do some labs which are otherwiseunavailable in a traditional environment. In many courses with a lab component, F2F sectionsand DE sections shared the same virtual lab environment already, making the transition fromface-to-face to online easier.As described in papers previously [3]-[4], different virtual lab

IntroductionMost engineering and computer science faculty members at our public university prefer teaching in aface-to-face format in the classroom instead of teaching virtually. However, during the COVID-19pandemic, the faculty are asked to choose among five teaching modalities that cope with the pandemic.The teaching modalities offered by the university are ‘Traditional Classroom/Laboratory,’ ‘BlendedHybrid,’ ‘Flexible mode,’ ‘Remote Virtual,’ and ‘Online.’It is important to note that a complete learning management system [1] is widely implemented acrossthe
