across colleges and universities offers a uniqueopportunity to create educational tools, enabling a decentralized training of cyberworkforce. To achieve this, we have developed training modules for a new generation of quantummaterials simulator, named AIQ-XMaS (AI and quantum-computing enabled exascale materialssimulator), which integrates exascalable quantum, reactive and neural-network moleculardynamics simulations with unique AI and quantum-computing capabilities to study a wide rangeof materials and devices of high societal impact such as optoelectronics and health. As a single-entry access point to these training modules, we have also built a CyberMAGICS (cyber trainingon materials genome innovation for computational software) portal

SoftwareProgrammable logic software and high-level language compilers for microcontrollers aresupplied by hardware vendors. They are usually packaged as a part of an IntegratedDevelopment Environment (IDE), which enables a project to be created and simulated, andfinally the hardware programmed. In many cases these are usually available free of charge,especially for educational use. A very significant factor for faculty is academic support for thesoftware in regard to the course textbook. A textbook that supports the chosen software by wayof examples and tutorials is viewed very positively by the students. In fact, given that thesoftware is often free, this may be the deciding factor for software selection.In terms of programmable logic, the most widely

PBL as a pedagogy is an important tool for addressing disparitiesexisting between the capabilities with which engineering students graduate and those demandedby employers.

MechanicalEngineering. Professional engineers generally use three types of software to handle theiranalyses of various problems: Computer-Aided Design (CAD), Finite Element Analysis (FEA),and Comptuational Fluid Dynamics (CFD). Many Mechanical Engineering students are onlyexposed to CAD and FEA in the core curriculum. Furthermore, students are taught theoreticalFluid Mechanics concepts in the core curriculum, so the use of fluids-based problems with CFDsoftware is a natural fit for this study. Therefore, in the study fluid mechanics problems weresolved using a computational approach (CFD) while the software is validated using a theoreticalapproach.
