The objective was to discover ways to relate federal work study (FWS) at WPI and the associated community service to specific majors at the school. This was done by researching Federal Work Study policies both in place at colleges and enforced by the U.S. federal government, interviewing WPI's FWS administrator, and surveying WPI students. It was found that there are many opportunities to change WPI's FWS program to improve its educational value and that the majority of survey respondents would prefer the proposed changes.
