Their common goal is to equip students with the language skillsneeded to excel in a rapidly-changing and culturally-diverse global economy. The curricula are developedto prepare students both culturally and professionally in orders to enable them to socially live andfunction in globalize communities. Curricula that offer students the utilitarian aspects of language studyand a functional basic vocabulary in multiple career clusters (engineering, business, health, etc.).

Thesecond of the three projects is intended to simulate an authentic engineering design processbased on service learning criteria. The third project is a popsicle sticks bridge contest.The Introduction to Engineering course has been meeting for two hours each week, andconventional wisdom recommends that a student should devote from two to four hoursoutside the classroom for every hour spent in the class. Engineering courses typically requirea student commitment in the upper half of the range. Based on this principle, and

IntroductionPower electronics is an engineering discipline that deals with the conversion of electrical energyfrom one form to another. Power electronics has become increasingly important nowadays wherebillions of kilo-watts of electric power are being re-processed every day to provide the kind ofpower needed by loads1. Due to the rapid growth in power electronics technology, there has beenan increased presence of engineering companies who come during the career fair at Cal Poly torecruit electrical engineering (EE) students with power electronics background. This in turn hastriggered a great interest among our EE students in the field of power electronics as indicated
