Abstract
The Power & Energy Initiative in the Swanson School of Engineering at the University of Pittsburgh (Pitt) is partnering with regional industry to provide innovative education and collaborative research programs in the areas of electric power, nuclear, and mining engineering. Working together with industry, along with strong government sponsorship and other constituency support, Pitt is contributing to solutions that address the aging workforce issue in the power and energy sector, as well as to advances in technology development, research transition, and outreach. Industry champions include Eaton Corporation, Westinghouse Electric Co., and CONSOL Energy. In addition, Pitt is playing an active role nationally through leadership involvement in the IEEE PES Power & Energy Engineering Workforce Collaborative, and is establishing a model program for the resurgence and sustainability of university based electric power and energy programs.
