institutions and ensure the most up-to-date approaches andterminology are being communicated to students. This document can also help identify gaps andguide the use of resources for developing new research, partnerships, courses, etc.The structure and form of the program can then be addressed to best meet the stated mission,values, and outcomes. Creating a structure where students all take the same introductory course,have the opportunity to choose from a variety of courses and community-engaged experiences,and finally complete a year-long community engaged project allows students to build skillsthrough a supportive curriculum. These opportunities are supplemented with several studentorganizations and a recently-developed applied research laboratory

bridges or dockse.g. Figure 2. Sample bottles were attached to the swing sampler pole which was lowered intothe river. Sample bottles were rinsed two times using the river water at the sampling locationbefore a sample was taken. Samples were collected at a depth of approximately 0.5 m consistentwith the methodology presented in [34, pp. 2477–2486]. As specified in ASTM D5175-91, 75µL of sodium thiosulfate (0.04 g/mL) was added to each sample. Samples were stored in a cooleruntil they were returned to the laboratory and stored in a 4°C refrigerator for extraction andanalysis. A total of 48 samples were collected from the Mill River on eight sampling expeditionsduring June and July 2021. Samples were taken during wet-weather and dry conditions and

only one semester. A goal is to expand to fall and springwith the same cohort of university students, but that seems to be a constraint as some studentscan only take the class one semester. Another challenge is when to start the engagement in theelementary school. The local school district has teaching time and materials requirements andaligning the best day for the outreach engagement can be a challenge. Working with the schoolson designated outreach days has been successful; however, the schedule may not always alignwith the university students’ schedules. Some of the more positive opportunities are to bringmore elementary students to campus to participate in hands-on learning at the design studio laband to visit research laboratories. This

Scholarship (CES) or Community Engaged Research (CER). Ultimately, high qualityCE can span all of the traditional faculty activities of teaching, research, and service. While thisis a win-win in terms of beneficial impacts, it can also pose challenges in the faculty promotionand tenure process where academia traditionally compartmentalizes these activities and research-intensive institutions place outsized weight on the importance of research. In STEM fields,fundamental research (including laboratory experiments and numerical modeling) is oftenviewed as more scholarly than applied research. CES/CER is at risk of being devalued undertraditional academic standards [5-6] given its dual purpose of real-world benefits forcommunities.CES is increasingly

-centered engineering design for 1) supporting and engaging students with community needs asthey learn disciplinary practices and 2) advancing social change through the teaching andlearning of engineering.IntroductionDesign is recognized by practitioners and educators as an essential attribute of engineering [1],[2]. In recent decades, human-centered design (HCD) has arisen as a method for developingdesign thinking in engineering. This approach to design places human needs at the center ofdesign processes, valuing users’ experiences and perspectives as fundamental for the solutionscreated [3], [4]. Barlow and Levy-Bencheton describe HCD as “the opposite of the mad scientistscenario, in which a solitary genius working in a laboratory comes up with a
