Abstract
A novel curriculum at the University of Arizona introduces students to community engaged engineering with applied projects that generate positive real-world impacts. Replication of this curriculum can enable science and engineering students at other institutions to benefit from experiential learning opportunities. This presentation seeks to spark discourse regarding the unique opportunities of systems engineers to contribute our practice to local and global improvements.
