Associate Professor, Electrical and Computer Engineering
Dr. Bass has extensive experience developing power engineering education programs, developing power engineering curricula, and developing hands-on engineering education laboratories. He established and directs the power engineering BS EE and MS ECE programs at PSU. Dr. Bass specializes in teaching undergraduate and graduate courses on electric power, electromechanical energy conversion, distributed energy resources, industrial controls and power systems analysis. He has taught over 140 engineering courses, and he has developed thirty-five power-related courses, including many focused on renewable energy engineering. Dr. Bass has developed a variety of teaching laboratories, with foci on electric power and machines, photovoltaics, electrochemistry and fuel cells, industrial controls, thermal and fluid systems, power systems protection, power systems analysis and power electronics. Dr. Bass has raised over $3.4M in funding specifically for power engineering program development. He has been successful at attracting funding from a wide variety of sources, including federal (US DOE), state (Engineering & Technology Investment Council, Oregon BEST), industry (Portland General Electric, the Bonneville Power Administration, POWER Engineers) and private gifts.
