Projects in Engineering Education: The Students’ PerspectiveAbstract:International service projects are increasingly recognized as a way to prepare students for theglobal marketplace. Project-based service learning is a valuable educational tool, and expandsupon a traditional engineering education. Accordingly, increased opportunities for this have beenprovided to students through various national and university institutions. In the past three years,students from Tufts University have initiated projects in Ecuador, El Salvador and the TibetAutonomous Region. These projects provide diverse perspectives, from which important lessonscan be extracted.This paper will address lessons learned from student-run international service

professional or “soft” skills emphasized by accrediting agencies 13, and hence,greater persistence and success. In engineering settings, service learning provides experientiallearning to help students appreciate the non-engineering related aspects to problem solving,develop practical skills, and illuminate the link between engineering and the amelioration ofsocietal issues and problems. The application of engineering skills to community serviceprojects distinguishes service learning from the typical internships, co-ops and fellowships thatstudents frequently seek. In these experiences, students would likely work on projects ofcommercial importance to the sponsoring agency. Service learning may be integrated into the
