Real-world challengesare becoming increasingly complex and global, and engineering projects often requirecollaboration between people from different cultures.Global engineering is a general engineering course required by all engineering students. Thecourse focuses on designing and developing engineering solutions to real-world problems in aglobal context. In spring 2024, the course was offered in an innovative way, with a lecture-basedpart and a hands-on laboratory part. The

consistently ranked job opportunities andunemployment as the top concerns they wish the government would address (Hope, 2012). As aresult, the Kenyan government and other aid organizations such as the World Bank have putprograms in place to attempt to fix this problem. One such program, the Youth EnterpriseDevelopment Fund (YEDF), was a way to give youth-owned businesses the capital they need toexpand their business ventures. However, this program was plagued with corruption and hadvery little impact on the unemployment crisis (Ismail, 2018). Other programs such as the KenyaYouth Employment Project (KYEP) resulted in moderate increases in employment but foundlittle to no increase in earnings for program participants (Ismail, 2018).Despite these

Regionalbachelor’s institutions are expected to lose more than 11% of their students by 2029, whereasdemand for elite institutions may be up to 14% higher in 2029 than it was in 2012 [2]. For elitecolleges researchers say it is the appeal of the job markets that gives them a better advantage.Will [3] in 2016 states “The United States is projected to produce fewer high school graduateseach year from 2014 to 2024, compared to the highest number of recorded number of graduatesin 2013. There will be a short period of growth between 2024 to 2026, but between 2027 and2032, the average size of graduating classes is expected to be smaller than it was in 2023.”Figure 1 below depicts [2] the growth, decline and the anticipated
