Aim and MethodologyOne of the activities planned during the visit to Cal Poly was to conduct collaborative researchon renewable energy. 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. During the 3 month visit, the facultyconducted several activities that can help her in preparing for her future research effort inrenewable energy.

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

The objective of each interview is to understand individual factors that contribute tochanges in identities and career interest measured in the surveys. Additionally, the interviewsaimed to assess student perceptions of the research project and its influence on career choice.Example questions include “What influences your choice of research project and laboratory?”and “How did you use aspects of your identity in developing engineering solutions?” Probequestions elicit rich descriptions that support data quality.

These courses have been taught since their first offering in Fall2020 and Spring 2021. The goal for these courses was to ease students into completely open-ended engineering design – the structure of senior design. At the same time, the instructor aimedto equip students with skillsets that would make them hirable and be more successful in seniordesign given it wouldn’t be the first time they were using such tools.

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
