Power tools scare me.’ But now I am no longer afraid of power tools.” “I definitely learned more on running a mill and running a lathe. I learned a lot of tools that I never would have expected to use before, and how they're properly used, so that was kind of a big thing for me. And names of tools, like more unique tools, because that was nice, you feel savvier talking to people in industry.”Other skills students developed included technical writing, communication, time management. “Writing technical reports has definitely helped me build some

environmentalimpact of engineering. Inclusion of these soft skills into an already packed engineeringcurriculum can be difficult. One approach that appears to be effective at helping students developthe soft skills without compromising the acquisition of technical knowledge is service-learning.Service-learning is a form of project based experiential learning where the students are engagedin an activity that meets the specific needs of a community or nonprofit organization. Whencorrectly implemented, both the service and educational objectives are met. Service-learning hasbeen incorporated with varying degrees of success into many courses and/or curriculum in manyuniversities across the United States since the late 1980’s .1-3 However, only a small fraction

IntroductionWhile use of advanced design tools and software is deemed imperative for engineers in bothresearch and industry settings, acquiring these skills is not typically embedded in theundergraduate curriculum.

In the engineering world of the future, a sound understanding of thetheoretical and practical sides of engineering ethics will be as necessary to the proper educationof engineers as a knowledge of differential equations is today, if not more so”.4Robin Tatu in her article “Knowledge Isn’t Enough” takes the famous quote from the Greekinventor Archimedes “Give me a place to stand and I will move the Earth” and argues that “thepotential to wield such power is

The urgency with which this “vigorous engagement” has to be pursuedin the area of technical education is apparent from remarks made by William Wulf, in hisPresidents Speech to the National Academy of Engineering in 2003, in which he concludes withthis advice: “Our society is dependent upon technology created by engineers. Engineering ischanging rapidly, and I believe engineering education has to change even faster for us tomaintain our quality of life. We’ve studied it to death. We know what to do.
