To satisfy theABET requirements, students in electrical engineering programs are required to take a capstonecourse. This paper describes sample renewable capstone projects that students have done in thisprogram.IntroductionOver the past decade, engineering education has undergone significant changes, shifting towardcritical thinking, active learning, and hands-on problem-solving. Despite this progress, a growingskills gap persists in the engineering workforce due to the fast pace of technological advancement.Traditional education methods remain heavily theory-based and task

Both programs are titled “Sustainable Engineering”. The objectives ofthe programs are to equip engineers with the tools they will need to meet the challengesassociated with delivering goods, energy and services through sustainable means. Theseprograms will deliver education on sustainable design methods related to the design ofproducts, processes, and energy related systems as well as end of life management decisiontools and technologies.The structure of the M.Eng. program is shown in Figure 1, and that of the M.S. program inFigure 2

So, this classificationgroups the 2-yr Associate and the 4-yr Bachelor degree together. The classification alsomay include the programs that have less engineering and more management courses intheir curriculum.
