Warfare Center (NSWC) facility at Crane, Indiana.The DoD and many employers seek skilled engineers who are highly innovative and are strongleaders in the workplace [1], and has developed leadership competency models specifically forits civilian workforce. In 2019, the 38th Marine Commandant’s Planning Guidance emphasizedthe combination of leadership with innovation, saying “For the Marine Corps, meaningfulinnovation is not just having great thoughts and concepts rather, it is about translating greatthoughts and concepts into action.” [2]. However, many engineering and computing degreecurricula, including at this institution, require neither any leadership training nor researchexperience that enables innovation (other than the practice of design

(p. 3).To further understand what service learning is, it is also useful to define what it is not. Theliterature appears to consistently distinguish service learning from community service, in thatacademic learning is a fundamental feature of the service learning experience, while it is not anessential component to community service2, 29, 32.

Students were given suggestions for the mid-term and finalpapers; these suggestions are listed in Table 2. Students were also encouraged to suggest otherideas for their papers, particularly with respect to their final paper. If students were able toidentify a topic for their final paper that overlapped with their primary major, they wereencouraged to explore that topic. For example, one student from education prepared as theirfinal paper a lesson plan for 4th-grade students on energy.
