However, current curricula mostly include traditional topics for laboratory courses,such as electric power and machinery. The laboratory courses should also update along with theupdated lecture courses and cover smart grid technologies, i.e., renewable and green energyintegration, energy efficiency, energy storage.

Most faculty at SJSU had nevertaught online before this dramatic shift in March 2020 and both faculty and students werechallenged to finish the semester. Most SJSU engineering classes are offered in the traditionalface-to-face mode with in-person laboratories and project classes. Because of COVID-19, allSJSU classes, including those in the College of Engineering, went to a remote mode.The object of this study was to determine the impact of the sudden move to remote learning onengineering students at SJSU through a survey and interviews.

A greater awareness of this need resultedfrom the T2 Laboratories runaway reaction and explosion that occurred in Jacksonville, Floridain 2007 [4].
