record of service. As a result, engineers and engineering educators may beunfamiliar with or misperceive the principles of leadership within the Army because 1) they haveno affiliation with the Army or 2) they have gained a perception of military leadership throughwhat they see in Hollywood.The purpose of this paper is to provide a comprehensive overview of Army leadership throughthe lens of the United States Military Academy at West Point (West Point). Leadershipprinciples, education, and training are reviewed from guiding doctrinal principles through aninstitution-level leader development system, and into specific coursework that focuses on leaderdevelopment. Finally, the paper situates these leadership principles in the capstone

programs tend to focus on leadership asa set of skills or experiences bolted onto a traditional engineering education with limited formalevidence of the impact these experiences have on student development.The purpose of this study is to test the effect of experiences engineering students have in leadershiproles on their perceived gains in leadership skills, using a national dataset. The framework guidingthis study is a model for engineering leadership identity constructed from Lave and Wenger’scommunities of practice model and Komives et al.’s model for leadership identity development(LID) which recognizes that the engineering formation process is, at its core, an identitydevelopment process. Engineering leadership is theorized to develop from
