Dear IJSLE Subscribers:

The editors of the International Journal for Service Learning in Engineering:  Humanitarian Engineering and Social Entrepreneurship (IJSLE) are pleased to announce publication of its Fall 2011 issue.  To view this issue of the Journal, please log on to www.ijsle.org. We invite you to review the Table of Contents shown below and then visit our web site to review articles and items of interest.

The Journal welcomes manuscripts based on the original work of students, faculty and researchers with a specific focus on projects, programs, research and pedagogy that involve humanitarian engineering, social entrepreneurship, and service learning in engineering.

A primary purpose of the Journal is to foster inquiry into rigorous engineering design and research and direct those efforts toward solving problems of marginalized communities. The examination of cultural appropriateness is emphasized along with the application of appropriate technologies and entrepreneurial application of sustainable solutions. Focus is also placed on associated pedagogy and the dissemination of project results as the Journal seeks to nurture service learning in engineering as a distinct body of knowledge.
