“…In 2004, the National Academy of Engineering's "The Engineer of 2020", reinforced the criteria when they reported the engineer of 2020 will need strong analytical skills combined with interdisciplinary competence; the ability to synthesize information from a broad range of disciplines and contextual competence; the ability to understand the constraints and impacts of engineering solutions on social, cultural, political and environmental contexts. 2,3 At the same time ABET introduced EC 2000, Purdue's School of Electrical and Computer Engineering published the first results of their EPICS, Engineering Projects in Community Service, program. 4 Student evaluations from the first three semesters of EPICS showed significant promise in service learning as a vehicle to address the soft skills of engineering.…”

The concept of student engagement, now prominent in the engineering education and higher education communities, has a long intellectual history. Yet only recently has attention focused on the role that faculty play as designers of educational environments to support student engagement. Drawing from examples and data from the Engineering Change study (which evaluated the impact of the new EC2000 accreditation standards on engineering programs and student learning), the Academic Pathways Study of the Center for the Advancement of Engineering Education, and studies underway at the United States Air Force Academy, we explore the role of faculty, as the institutional agents who are most proximal to the student experience, in developing, facilitating, and sustaining high levels of student engagement.
