A secondary objective for offering the course was to stimulate interest in energy-relatedcareers, a field that today lacks adequate personnel with expertise and will have vastly increasedneeds for such talent in the future3, 7.Throughout the course, frequent references are made to the engineering elements involved in agiven conversion technology, as well as the engineering issues latent in existing and proposedenergy policies. It is stressed that the discipline of engineering is often viewed as the applicationof science and technology to the needs of society, which reinforces to the students thatengineering energy solutions go beyond technology to include such aspects as economics,finance, and policy

printers is highly desirable, especially since3D printers can speed up the process considerably. Justification for adoption of 3D printers inengineering education is well documented in engineering education literature1-8.In the past few years, inexpensive 3D printers that can produce plastic parts became ubiquitousdevices in education due to the expiration of many 3D printing technology-related patents. ManyK-16 educational institutions have at least one 3D printer, predominantly of the fused depositionmodeling (FDM) design. While acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS), polylactic acid (PLA), ornylon can create functional objects, for some applications plastic parts are just not strong enough.Until now, 3D printing in metal was for a privileged few

Certification requirements and standardized tests generated in this“accountability era” continue to perpetuate the interest in the “pure” sciences in the curriculum.Even if teachers are knowledgeable about engineering and wish to add engineering material totheir math and science classes, they do not know where they fit in with state and nationalstandards. Even though these standards address engineering and technology concepts, teachersemphasize the pure sciences. At the high school level, lack of understanding of engineering bycurriculum designers and teachers make it difficult to get engineering concepts into courses. Forsimilar reasons, having an Introduction to Engineering class accepted as a science class at thehigh school level is difficult

In some disciplinary areas, such as in science, technology, engineering, and math(STEM) fields, disabled students are more likely to experience discrimination due to a reportedlymore competitive and less flexible and supportive environment. Academic librarians and othereducators can make a difference for these students by contributing to a more inclusive campusenvironment for disabled people in STEM by implementing universally accessible and inclusivepedagogy, resources, services, and spaces.
