Now this is a good start for a solid support structure. How about more electrical engineers so we are ready for the EV transition, too? --Ed.
More hybrid electric vehicle engineers are on their way.
Wayne State University and the Michigan Department of Energy, Labor and Economic Growth are partnering to train hybrid electric vehicle (HEV) engineers as the state’s automotive industry transitions to manufacturing more advanced, fuel-efficient vehicles.
Graduate-level courses in advanced battery systems for HEVs will be offered at the WSU College of Engineering this fall and spring of 2010. The courses target employed automotive engineers as well as displaced workers who meet the prerequisites.
The advanced hybrid electric battery course will familiarize students with battery system design, applications and interconnectivity with other operating systems in HEVs. Students will learn the basics, including such topics as power demand, thermal management and battery life cycles.
Admission for the four-credit WSU course is selective with priority consideration given to employed engineers, engineering graduate students, employed technicians and... http://www.freep.com/article/20090817/BUSINESS01/90817045/1210/BUSINESS/Classes-to-lead-to-more-hybrid-electric-engineers
