Team dynamics, particularly in terms of communication, may be affected by cultural norms and the technology associated with virtual teams. Engineering principles never change, but the context within which engineering challenges exist differs by geography, culture, etc., and this affects problem framing, design. constraints, and deliverables.

In this globalized world of technological advances, developinginternational collaborations between scholars within the STEM fields is not only beneficial; it isessential, thus opportunities should not be limited to a select few.

In order for faculty researchers to advance in the fields of engineering, computer science,and information technology, they must gain visibility in the national and international scientificcommunity. Often, due to their underrepresentation, the resulting isolation, and genderedstructural barriers, female faculty have less access to mentoring relationships than their malecounterparts [10], [11], [12], [13].
