== Photovoltaic Materials and Electronic Device Physics of Solar Cells: ==
[[image:GELP_Logo.jpg|left|thumb|[http://globalenergyleaders.podbean.com/e/episode-12-solar-energy/ Global Energy Leaders Podcast on Solar Energy]]]
[[Photovoltaic]] electrical production is a technologically feasible, economically viable, environmentally benign, sustainable, and socially equitable solution to society’s future energy requirements. If anyone is still concerned about the energy payback of solar cells please read [http://www.cede.psu.edu/users/alau/ASES02_Net_Energy_PV.pdf this]. There is currently a big debate in the photovoltaic industry on how to get low cost solar electricity. Is it better to go with high efficiencies and pay more up front -- or really push the costs down with junk materials and accept an efficiency penalty.  I don't know which way is better so I do research on both approaches.


Solar installations have grown by more than 600% across both residential and commercial properties in the past 9 years – a compound industry growth rate of 76% [http://www.renewableenergyworld.com/articles/2015/08/study-reveals-room-for-sales-response-improvement-in-growing-solar-industry.html].

Teaching

Template:Userboxtop Template:User Service Learning Template:Userboxbottom I am also a strong proponent for service learning in engineering and making change. Utilizing appropriate technology projects to motivate students to learn physics. Also using service learning and commissioned assignments to solve real world environmental problems. Why students should come to MTU [1]

Courses with a service learning component

I have used Appropedia to support the following courses:

  • APSC100 - Engineering - First Year Project course
  • MECH370 - Materials Processing
  • Mech425 - Engineering for Sustainable Development
  • MECH820 - Solar Photovoltaic Materials, Cells and Systems Engineering
  • MECH836 - Applied Sustainability and CMAS801
  • MY3701 - Introduction to Semiconductor Materials Science and Engineering
  • MY4777/MY5777/EE4777/EE5777 Open-source 3-D printing
  • MY5970 - Solar Hacking
  • MY5490/EE5490 - Solar Photovoltaic Science and Engineering
  • PH261 - Physics of Energy and the Environment
  • PH254 - Introduction to Nanotechnology

The International Journal for Service Learning

I am the manuscript editor for the IJSLE. The International Journal for Service Learning in Engineering (IJSLE) is a peer-reviewed electronic journal offered free, semi-annually, over the World Wide Web. The Journal welcomes manuscripts based on original work of students and researchers with a specific focus or implication for service learning in engineering, engineering entrepreneurship in service, or related service learning pedagogy.

With an increasing number of individuals and institutions of higher education becoming involved in service learning and entrepreneurship in service learning, the IJSLE is an invaluable resources for students, faculty, practicing engineers and local communities. With articles relating to the latest design and research pertinent to local communities, the faculty-reviewed articles in each issue provide the reader with timely information related to: 

   * Engineering Design Projects as Service
   * Engineering Research Projects as Service
   * Engineering-Related Entrepreneurial Projects as Service
   * Pedagogy in Engineering-Related Service Learning

If you are contributing to Appropedia - you should seriously consider submitting a manuscript once your project has come together
