notspecifically target the freshman-to-sophomore transition [12, 13]. We therefore created aprogram that begins in the last term of the participants’ freshman year, with a service learningEngineering Ethics and Professionalism course, and allows students to work on service learningprojects for a local community organization in the summer. The design projects, with theirinevitable need to revisit design choices, teach students to build grit and learn from mistakesthrough the iterative process of design, build, and test. It also builds their engineering identity, asthey see themselves more as real-world problem solvers. The service learning aspect enablesstudents to see the impact of their engineering abilities on their local community and motivatesthem to

for teams without a deep practiceof computer security.Observation 3: Some competitors are very advanced in their knowledge of cybersecurity, even atthe high school level. This results in some very lopsided competitions. We view this as a threat tonovice players. Our conclusion is that the disparity of skills in an unbalanced game environmentcreates a hostile, inaccessible environment for students with budding interest in cybersecuritywho have limited computer-technical skills.Observation 4: Many competitions do not emphasize the tangential competencies ofcybersecurity careers such as ethical, legal, and privacy concerns inherent to cybersecurity.Additionally, most competitions also don not explore the need for demonstrating goodcommunication
