Michigan Economic Development Corporation, “It’sestimated that we can create more than 60,000 new jobs by investing in alternative energy,including advanced battery storage, biofuels, and wind and solar energy” [12]. There is a clearneed for a systematic training program on energy storage technology, particularly in regionswhere the sustainable energy development in electricity generation and automotivemanufacturers and their advanced battery suppliers are highly concentrated. The goal of thiscollaborated curricula development is to fill this need by developing an industry-based learningenvironment to prepare students and returning engineers or technicians to be skilled energystorage engineers or technicians in both the stationary and vehicular

Indeed, given the projections2 that (1) the pace of technologicalinnovation will continue to be rapid, (2) the world in which technology will be deployed willbe intensely globally interconnected, and (3) designers, manufacturers, distributors, users willbe increasingly diverse and multidisciplinary; our graduates will need to develop these skillsto a higher degree.Despite this need, however, the engineering education has been observed to do the opposite,at least on enhancing creative problem solving skills.
