GOALS: Energy
Indicator 3: Increase the funding for the development of
alternative fuels.
While
there are many known sources of alternative energy, all of their
applications have not been fully explored. Behrend's largest
school is the School
of Engineering and Engineering Technology, and thereby is
in a unique position to expand the knowledge base of alternative
energy sources/usages. Further incorporating energy efficiency
into curriculums would help spread the knowledge/application
of alternative/efficient energy sources.
Behrend also has a large research
and outreach program that can aid in alterative fuels research
and application and disseminate the knowledge to the larger community.
Engineering majors can continue work on designing energy efficient
processes, and share those processes with local companies through
outreach.
