Three distinct programs aim to transform ECE educationthrough collaborative course design, enhancements to the department climate, and increases inthe opportunities for underrepresented undergraduate engineering students. Due to the integrativeand corresponding programmatic goals, it
in an engineering context has been described as the abilityto perform a task, question and reflect upon it while grounding their reflection in reality. It isimportant to note the critical thinking as a dynamic concept in engineering that requires studentsto navigate between empirical and abstract knowledge (Ahern, et al., 2012).Collaboration is often closely linked with critical thinking. This is not surprising given the team-based nature of most engineering professions and the inclusion of communication and teamworkas an explicit goal in the accreditation of engineering programs (Woods, et al., 2000).Furthermore, Mills and Treagust (2003) posit that traditional “chalk and talk” pedagogies remainprevalent in engineering education despite the
education effort with foci onundergraduate and graduate engineering with a BME application focus. These reform effortscombine the collaborative expertise of the university’s school of engineering, a school ofmedicine and a school of education. The engineering educational reform efforts combineundergraduate and graduate coursework with comprehensive, innovative, and multidisciplinarylaboratory experiences aligned to the ERC’s BME test beds for all students. Students haveopportunities to engage in powerful research side-by-side premiere researchers using aninductively based, situated approach to curriculum and instruction.

Building on its findings andgathering input from a broader cross section of attendees, this session produced the followingrecommendations: • Relevant organizations (ECEDHA, IEEE/PES, etc.) should be working to create a single collaborative voice to advocate for power and energy engineering education and research. Building awareness, advertising available programs and highlighting industry opportunities would be possible elements of such a collaborative. Web-based resources would be extremely useful in this regard. • Ways to strengthen/retain engineering talent in this area should include: (1) providing a biennial
