      In the MEES Course Planning Information Tab on the Main MEES Community Page, there are two new links that may be helpful.

      For the new MEES students “Course Plan by Cohort” shows the new A/B schedule structure for cohorts start in Fall 2020 and beyond.

      For all MEES students “Planned Course Offerings by Semester” shows the courses that we have scheduled for all terms through Fall of 2022. Additional electives will be added as I know what other programs are scheduling. Those links will be updated as courses are scheduled (so check back for more info on Spring in October)

      For continuing MEES students – if there are elective courses that you are interested in taking in the Spring that you don’t see listed – please email Dr. Strzelec (strzelec@wisc.edu) – if we have enough interested students, I will do my best to offer the course.

      As promised, I have finally gotten a complete listing of the courses that will be offered in the Spring from all the EPD programs – I have updated the “Planned Course Offerings by Semester” – so please check that out to see what your options will be. I’ll be working on updating degree plans next week, and then be in touch with you – to check in and see what you are thinking about for spring.

      In addition,  Exhaust Aftertreatment Systems (2cr, 8 week course) starts next week – first webinar is on Tuesday – and there is still time to add, if you are interested.

      Engine Project Management (EPM) was an engine program specific core course, previously delivered by me as part of the MEES program. Feedback from previous cohorts who took EPM was that they gained a lot from the course and were able to apply learning from each week directly to the work environment. EPM has been replaced by a 3 credit Technical Project Management (TPM) course, offered as an elective for Spring 2021.

      The TPM course is taken by other EPD degree programs and so is a more general project management class that prepares students with the theory, tools, techniques and methodologies to effectively plan and deliver complex projects. It is an essential skillset for anyone aspiring to engineering leadership positions. I will be co-delivering TPM, and if anyone on the MEES program wishes to sign up for TPM, as an adjunct to the course I can provide them with engines specific case studies, engine projects examples and guidance related to engines project management to help make TPM more relevant to their MEES program and application to your daily engines project work.

      If you want to know more about the course, feel free to contact me directly – Brian Price, bjprice@wisc.edu
