paper discusses the integration of COMSOL Multiphysics into an EE program through theuse of energy related applications. This was made possible by the university’s Innovation inEducation Award. This paper details the award proposal, the implementation of COMSOLMultiphysics into an electromagnetics course through an undergraduate special project, anenergy related undergraduate summer research using COMSOL Multiphysics, and a plan forintegrating the tool into more of the EE curriculum at University of Pittsburgh and how it can beused for education and undergraduate research in sustainable energy.Innovation in Education AwardThe University of Pittsburgh has an annual Innovation in Education Award which facultythroughout the university can apply to

Three distinctlearning strategy groups were identified: Navigators, Problem Solvers, and Engagers [10].Navigators plan their learning and focus on completing the necessary activities to achieve theirgoals. Order and structure are important to these learners, who tend to be logical, objective, andperfectionists. They want clear objectives and expectations at the beginning of a course and inadvance of activities, such as in an explicit and detailed syllabus. Problem Solvers are criticalthinkers who like to explore multiple alternatives. For them, the process is important, so theyneed flexibility in completing learning activities.

differences lead to inequitable practices within teams such as unfair distributionsof the workload or type of work, often in problematic ways. For example, active and dominantstudents might advocate for themselves to take on the more challenging and interesting parts of aproject, leaving the more mundane and menial work to their passive teammates. Mix-genderedteams in engineering education have been found to have unbalanced work distribution: womenmay do more work related to planning or communication, while men may do more technicalwork [1]. Such disproportionate allocation of work and assumption of roles lead to studentsobtaining unequal gains from team projects, for which the more active student might have hadthe more enjoyable and useful

Finally, the FMEA is documented and reported.The process for developing a FMEA in ARP5580 begins with identifying when the FMEA is tobe developed and what type of FMEA is to be completed.

The students’ responses revealed that they were lacking the key insights bornegenerally out of experience or deep mechanical understanding.The results of this initial study reframed the focus of the work to include the development ofthese engineering insights in future PBL problems. Judiciously planned and discussed homeworkor in-class assignments could also provide guidance to move the students’ phase 1 models closerto the “expert” model found in the JN. The wide range of approaches taken by the students in thePhase 1 was revealing in that the original problem statement was potentially too broad in topicfor students at this level.
