significantamounts of time, and may not be highly regarded by a tenure-review committee. Therefore, itmay be better to delay participation in such activities until after receiving tenure.Recommendations on Early Career ServiceAs discussed, new, untenured engineering faculty members at research institutions need todetermine how to best balance their time between teaching, research, and service. In most cases,service contributions will be of less concern for a tenure review committee than research andteaching accomplishments. As large time commitments are the primary detriment to performingservice, an untenured faculty member needs to weigh the potential career benefits versus the timespent on a service activity. With these thoughts in mind, the following
