a method of teaching that integrates community service into an academiccourse through applied learning to enrich the educational experience of students and meet theneeds of the community. In this paper, we describe the integration of service-learning into anundergraduate industrial engineering course.Over the past three years, students in the course have worked with four community partners tocomplete service-learning projects. The community partners have included a high school,community library, local farm, and an assistive technology center. Students worked directly withcommunity partners to improve operations and ergonomics within their facilities. Through theprojects, students gained a deeper understand of the course content, as well as

However, a significant percentage ofengineers do not become professionally licensed. Regardless, students graduating from ABET-accredited engineering, engineering technology and computing programs must have anunderstanding of professional and ethical issues.9-11 But the depth and breadth of this knowledgeis poorly defined, proper assessment is difficult, and most
