the Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciencebuilt on their success of using robotics in the classroom to integrate computer science, electricalengineering and information technology students on project teams. Each project used a standardkit of equipment to design, build and test a robot that could complete a specific task. Theseprojects, conducted at three overseas locations in foreign languages with local faculty andstudents, were a tremendous success. In this paper, we describe our methodology for integratingmultidisciplinary and multicultural project members on undergraduate project teams andexporting this type of experience to distant locations while minimizing costs. In addition tomeaningful project work, the students

our Computer Science Engineering sequence (CSES) is to ensure thatstudents majoring in disciplines other than computer science develop a foundation for effectivelyemploying computer science fundamentals and Information Technology to solve real world problems.One of the desired outcomes for the CSES is for students to learn to effectively function as part of adiverse team to accomplish a common goal. CS300, Introduction to the Fundamentals of Programming, is the first course in the sequence. It isstrictly an individual effort with traditional homework assignments and exams. As the second course inthe sequence, CS350, Database Design & Implementation, employs an evaluation strategy that combinesgroup and individual effort. There are
