Hydrogen Education Pursues National Audience

In January, SERC submitted a proposal to the National Science Foundation to expand our work in hydrogen education with the goal of reaching a national audience. Working with proposal partners at Drexel University in Philadelphia, Michigan Technological University in Houghton, MI, and San Francisco State University, we proposed to create a new “Teaching Energy Concepts with Hydrogen” (TECH₂) project. This project would build on our recently completed (see January 2012 post) three year Hydrogen Energy in Engineering Education (H₂E³) curriculum in which we worked with California universities in both the CSU and UC systems. The proposed TECH₂ project would reach nearly 5,000 freshman engineering students across the country.
