Growingregional industries have looked upon The Citadel to meet some of their engineering needsthrough veteran graduates, but demand for engineers is increasing and outpacing the smallveteran student population.

Three research questions (RQs) were examined: (1) How does theprofessional connectedness of engineering students attending a military academy compare tostudents at other institutions? (2) How do engineering students with military aspirations
Engineering Education, 2019 Introducing College-level Laboratory Exercises in a Pre-college Summer ProgramThere are hundreds of pre-college summer programs that take place annually atcolleges and universities in the United States. [1,2] Many are enrichment programsdeveloped to expose middle and high school students to academic and researchexperiences in targeted fields such as Engineering and Sciences. [2] All are developedto include an experience of college life at that particular institution. [3, 4, 5] The UnitedStates Federal Service Academies all have pre-college programs that focus on thestudent experience at those institutions.
