Abstract

This paper presents a service-learning educational program called EPICS (Engineering Projects In Community Service). It also describes our efforts and experiences from incorporating this program within a Computer Science and Software Engineering curriculum. Our paper concludes by discussing various key challenges and some early lessons learned while crafting such program.
