The course was designed to address the policy,economic, and societal issues of energy, in order to complement the more technical coursesrequired as part of the undergraduate certificate. In order to minimize any additional credit hoursrequired of students pursuing the certificate, the course was also designed to fit within theUniversity’s new General Education requirements as a “Global Dynamics” course. The course isalso well suited to cover the broader “impacts” of engineering as required by ABET.

Such trends have resulted in increased interests inattending power electronics courses at all levels, as well as in offering short courses, workshopsand training sessions for professionals. In response to these demands, the universities offeringbaccalaureate and graduate degrees in electrical and electronics engineering must developcurricula to educate a workforce that is well equipped to meet these challenges.Teaching power electronics is challenging since the field is broad, requiring knowledge inmultiple areas of electrical and computer engineering.

Through hands-on learning activities in classroom, field, and laboratorysettings, participants are sensitized to the critically important issues of the "carbon cycle" and itsrelevance to "biodiesel" and climate change and the utilization of natural resources and wastesfor the generation of bio-products. Survey instruments have been developed to document andanalyze feedback from the participants about the classroom, field, and laboratory components ofthe institute.
