Under the SAME program, research was commissioned to developunderstanding of wider benefit to the faculty exchange program, to the country of faculty origin,to the host country of faculty exchange, and to investigate direct/indirect impact of the facultyexchange program. For the faculty visiting Cal Poly, the research methodologies used wereliterature study and total participation as a faculty exchange.

The results of field study in the form of MHPP data or MHPP potential areaswere further processed into information that is presented in the information system as potentialMHPP map. For each phase of the study a report was written as an outcome. In the second year(2013), the MHPP was designed both at laboratory scale and at a selected site in a rural area ofMalang. Additionally, an organizational structure for MHPP was also developed for operationand maintenance. An MHPP operator was selected and then trained on how to manage MHPP sothat the existing infrastructure can operate longer and provides economic benefits

], but ECE students rarely take these courses from technology departments. A survey ofthe courses offered in the ECE curriculum by the four year universities in Virginia list no coursesin PLC based control. However, there are numerous reports on innovative approached to teachPLC in engineering technology programs [11-12]. To offset these missing skills in ECEgraduates, a capstone project as a pilot course was introduced in this work. The PLC basedcontrol can effectively be taught in a hands-on laboratory setting which is the focus of this paper.. Hardware and software integration using PLCs, and active lab-based learning is more effectivein these types of courses for engineering students [13], [14].Use of industrial robots in manufacturing

Students were briefed on the event by way of ashort presentation that was delivered approximately one week in advance to provide pre-exposure and background to answer general operational questions (e.g., the laboratory location,what to bring, etc.) and to prepare students with background on the specifics of the designactivities.

For example, all faculty mentorswere required to reach out to REU students 3-4 weeks before the program began. The intentionwas to set expectations for both faculty and students as well as to establish rapport. In thiscommunication, faculty mentors include details on the student project, including a rough outlineof research tasks for the summer, and a handful of articles that can orient the students within theresearch area. Other pertinent information to help with student preparation were also included,such as recommended clothing to pack for field work and any online laboratory safety
