The impact of these technologies on a future hydrogen economy, the impact onsmart grids, and job creation are also introduced. The curriculum draws heavily on the experienceand background, both theoretical and field experience, of the instructors including NSF and DOEgrants that allowed the design and implementation of a certified hydrogen development laboratory,and development of instructional materials for PEM training. The curriculum integrates key topicssuch as MATLABR and SIMULINKR modeling and simulation of critical components includingPEM Fuel Cells, PV with storage and grid

Unlike many other academic institutions, incoming USAFAstudents are not accepted to a college or school associated with a major’s program (e.g., Collegeof Engineering). USAFA has nine institutional outcomes, and one is devoted to all graduatesbeing able to apply the engineering method. To meet this outcome, all students take fiveengineering courses as a part of the general education curriculum regardless of their major. Theearly general education engineering courses present an opportunity to recruit undeclared studentsinto engineering during their first year.Field Engineering and Readiness Laboratory ContextIn

of Connecticut conducted a PBSL experience where approximately 400first-year engineering students designed and built Corsi-Rosenthal (C-R) boxes (DIY AirPurifiers) that trap 56-91 % of respiratory aerosols and improve indoor air quality. The C-Rboxes were built for a nominal cost of $60 per box, using a 20” box fan, four 20”x20”x2”MERV-13 filters, the box from the fan, and duct tape. The project was carried out by smallgroups (3-4 students) working in the First-Year Design Laboratory over four weeks. At the endof the project, the C-R boxes were distributed to the local elementary schools. During the pandemic, these first-year engineering students had completed their final yearin high school remotely, under lockdown. Thus, this C-R box

This class was designed to have approximately six hours a day ofstudent-instructor facetime over the five-day week. This instructional time included traditionallectures as well as field trips, laboratory experiments, and active learning activities. The homebase for the course was an active learning classroom with features such as pod seating, movabletables, and whiteboards.
