In the past few years,environmental engineering has become a field where community service learning has been foundto be synergistic, providing benefits to both the community and academia. This paper highlightsways in which community service learning can become

Thisprompts the question: To what extent is it possible for industry professionals to conductengineering education research without an academic partner? What barriers exist for thoseconducting engineering education research while working in education-adjacent industries? Thiswork in process paper outlines our approach to addressing these research questions by collectingdata from colleagues at two education-adjacent companies. From this research, we hope to gain abetter understanding of how industry members can overcome
