A qualitative review of success and failure is discussed based on program partner feedback,discussions with faculty, students, and communities. Conclusions from this paper raise some importantethical questions about the role of academic institutions when engaging with community partners. Inaddition, program design that employs the ethical engagement framework is described wherein, theimportance of contextual awareness and humility is highlighted. Next steps associated with this paperinclude the need to formally establish research-services with partner organizations

By the mid-1990s, ABET anticipated this need by shifting the accreditation basis toward outcomes ratherthan inputs, affecting engineering programs’ practices in the U.S. and in other countries, includedAustralia, Canada, Ireland, New Zealand, and the United Kingdom2. These criteria, widelyknown as EC2000, specified 11 learning outcomes (see Appendix 3)16: a) Five technical skills: Related to the development of students’ mathematical, scientific, and technical knowledge. b) Six professional skills: Those that emphasize communicating and working effectively on teams, besides the awareness of ethical and contextual
