current mechanical engineering class where the topic is firstintroduced to the students and the military significance. It is important to note that the militarysignificance is not a direct usage of the technology (we do not repair an aircraft or jam a radio),but only examples of engineering topics in military applications. Since the class is required to bean open enrollment class for any engineering student, topics must be general and non-classified inthe event non-us citizens are enrolled. The one exception was that some of the guest lectures wererestricted to U.S. citizens due to content. Because of these restrictions, attendance is notmandatory for these specific lectures.

ACE recruitsuniversity faculty members from across the country to evaluate military training and makeacademic credit recommendations. These evaluators are tasked with matching the content ofmilitary courses to the content of civilian university courses taught within their own disciplines.Military training needs and curricula have changed over the past three decades as a result ofshifting budgets, technological advancements, and evolving military priorities [1][2].

2013, slightly more than 18,000 student veterans used theirPost 9/11 GI Bill benefits to earn an engineering or engineer-related degree [25]. Lim andcolleagues [26] revealed that “student veterans saw engineering as a bridge that connected theirprior military work and their post-military professional aspirations” (p. 10). As such, engineeringis a “successful transition pathway” into higher education and beyond [26, p. 13]. The USgovernment has recognized the potential for student veterans to contribute to engineering laborforce, introducing legislation to encourage veterans to major in Science, Technology,Engineering, and Math (STEM) fields [27].Many departments of engineering recognize the assets that SVEs’ bring to their engineeringstudies
