Several universities/colleges have implementedcurricula or degree programs in energy and renewable energy [30-32]. Only a few universities inthe nation and around the world have a specific educational program on energy storage.Pennsylvania State University and Ohio State University, two of the few on the list, have anenergy storage curriculum embedded within their Graduate Automotive Technology Education(GATE) programs [33-35

thisconsensus was the mapping of the core curriculum to the Fundamentals of Engineering (FE)examination to ensure that students will be prepared to succeed in that recognized engineeringbenchmark.IntroductionIn the engineering profession and education over the past fifty years, a lot has changed, and a lothas stayed the same, depending upon the viewpoint and application of the term. Definitions forthe terms “engineer” and “engineering” can be found in Table 1 for both the year 1956 and 2006.The 2006 definition of “engineer” includes the first 1956 definition of “a designer andconstructor of engines.” Of most interest may be the expansion from the 1956 “applied science”to the 2006 “application of science and mathematics” as well as references to

Most enrollees are liberal arts major, while some are non-degree adult students.Besides discussing the strong correlation between human population and environment degradation,we cover most problems of pollution and resource depletion. Sustainable development and aworldview of the environment are the integrating themes. While several relevant topics arecovered in ESC 301, I make special efforts to emphasize the first R.

INTRODUCTION.The engineering education community has embraced the concept of multidisciplinary designover the past two decades 1-3. This movement reflects a renewed emphasis on design in theengineering curriculum, particularly at the freshman (cornerstone) and senior (capstone) levels 4.The benefit of training engineers to work in multidisciplinary teams is self-evident whenconsidering the integration of mechanical design, electronics, software, human factors andergonomics, and
