Many also described that they felt that the current process forlicensure was sufficient, with a combination of an exam, formal education from aBachelor’s degree, and practical experience. Some elaborated that if one can pass theexam that should be sufficient evidence of competence, and another indicated that theexam could be made more rigorous if individuals were uncertain that the currentrequirements were

A second law concept inventory is important since the interaction of entropy andenergy is an important skill for students to have when pursuing design and development ofadvanced energy conversion technology. In addition to the seemingly non-existence of a secondlaw concept inventory centered on engineering thermodynamic applications and the importanceof having equal strengths of knowledge in first and second law concepts, the development of theconcept inventory is also motivated by the need to assess a redesign of the first thermodynamicscourse for engineers that aims to increase the learning and retention of second law concepts.
