, over 40% of whom are female, spread across 165 university/collegechapters [12]. Studies have found that participating in this organization supports the developmentof professional skills such as teamwork, leadership [13], project management [14], appreciationfor other cultures, and increased awareness of the role of ethics in engineering [15], while notdiminishing any technical competencies [16]. EWB-USA has also been found to serve as a multi-faceted retention tool for engineering students, particularly women [14]. However, previousstudies have not specifically investigated the views of the program’s alums, and a study of anothercommunity engagement program called EPICS found that alums of that program often developedsignificant new insights

research and design (i.e. apprenticeship style) projects have naturally been theprimary avenues for student research, as they remain the major modes of quantitative explorationin STEM professional and academic fields [12]. However, there are other presumed merits to theresearch interview approach utilized here in the STEM environment: ● It forces students to confront the impact of science and engineering on a broad population. ● It can “humanize” STEM work, connecting data to people. ● It strengthens soft skills like communication, socialization, and ethics. ● It provides additional training beyond lab or workshop attributes. ● It familiarizes students with government policies that intersect with their
