A project-based interdisciplinary program in sustainable energy

This paper describes a new program that gives engineering students from the freshman year through graduate school the opportunity to learn interdisciplinary engineering in the sector of sustainable energy through practical projects. Many of today's students enter the University prepared and eager to learn through practical engineering projects, facilitated by modern technological tools and a wide variety of media. This program provides students with the opportunity to work on real life engineering applications, to practice their problem-solving skills, and to make engineering decisions. These skills will be essential when they embark on their engineering careers after graduation.
