Task 1: Workforce Command over a five-year period
Total battery production statistics
In 2006 (calendar year)
(source: Machinery statistics released by the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry)
The water powered battery will power a large to medium size device such as a computer. The production of water to hydrogen powered batteries will have to be about 2000 per year employing about 20 thousand and the cost of production will be about $200 meaning that the cost of production per year will be about $5 hundred thousand and the cost of this battery will have to be at least $450 for the manufacturer to make any profit after an year. The production of this battery will greatly affect the marketplace and the technology industry. Over the five year period the demand and production of this product is expected to increase. This battery will greatly effect the environment and everyday life.

Description: Students pursuing the Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering program take coursework in thermodynamics and heat transfer; instrumentation and measurements, energy conversion systems, solid and fluid mechanics, dynamics, machine analysis and design, mechanical design, vibrations and controls. This is supplemented by elective coursework in such areas as power plant analysis, refrigeration and air conditioning, mechanical design, advanced mechanics, robotics, propulsion, computer-aided design, manufacturing, composite materials, and aerodynamics.
Task 3: Electro Chemical Engineering
This Electrical Chemical Engineering Program will allow students to realize their interest in electrical engineering and chemistry. They will learn to study and create new electrical products powered by different types of chemicals. Students will study mechanical design and the critical components of building new machines. Chemical powered devices will be taken apart to understand the mechanical aspect of how they work and function. They will learn about the electrical aspects of machines and how they are built. The students learn to understand how different chemicals power different electrical devices. Once they understand this concept, they will research and create a new invention powered by a chemical of their choosing.
