The examples cover science ofmechanics, circuits and communication networks in these courses. The analytical topics arecovered in a four course sequence taught in a pilot version called Engineering Analysis, whichbegins with the first quarter of the freshman year.

Even though some degree of siloing occurs in most collegesand universities, research suggests that institutions can improve coordination and communicationby integrating services and collaborating to support student success through a more horizontal,holistic, and coordinated approach [16]. An important part of this change is addressing campusculture and how leaders support and work towards equity and incorporate collaborative strategies[21].

Becauseof the increased acceptance of power electronic circuits, courses in power electronics have beenadded to the curriculum of many schools 1.Typically introductory power electronics courses are offered without a laboratory experience.Power electronic laboratories are often offered as an independent course.
