The development and delivery of a new course on Maintenance and Reliability Engineering (MRE), for seniors and first-year graduate students in engineering, is the focus of this paper. The objective of this course is to present the fundamentals of MRE and maintenance management. Students learn the principles of various maintenance technologies as they are currently practiced by U.S. industry. The course activities include lectures, laboratory experiments, field trips, and team-based projects that are selected from different engineering disciplines. Distance education modules, with direct teacher-student interaction, are being developed. This new educational activity augments and broadens students’ capability in problem solving, with an opportunity for their career enhancement.
