In 2015, the Attributes of a GlobalEngineer Project formally concludes its work, having benefitted from prolonged engagementwith and input from globally-representative stakeholder groups of academicians and industrypartners. This paper will describe the process to develop attributes of a global engineer; present asummary of key results; discuss how attribute outcomes can assessed in engineering educationglobally; and provide recommendations for a variety of stakeholders, with particular emphasis onlessons learned from the multi-year Project.Introduction and ContextThe American Society for Engineering Education (ASEE) Board of Directors established theCorporate Member Council (CMC) to convey the ideas and views of corporations to

exchange where students enrol and study for either one semester or an academic year at an institution located in another country. 2. International project refers to a senior-year capstone design project with the involvement of another (host) country, often including sponsors and co-workers from the host country. 3. International work placement involves work at a foreign firm for a duration that ranges anywhere from 4 months to an entire year. 4. International field trip is usually a short-duration visit (one to two weeks) to one or more foreign countries, often including visits to other universities, research laboratories, and industrial establishments (factories, plants, etc.). 5

seminars,internships, learning communities, and capstone projects compared to only two anecdotalreferences to study aboard.This paper postulates that ABET’s Student Outcome 3(h) “the broad education necessary tounderstand the impact of engineering solutions in a global, economic, environmental, andsocietal context” and Student Outcome 3(i) "a recognition of the need for, and an ability toengage in lifelong learning" are not mutually exclusive but rather interdependent and mutualisticin nature. Outcomes by their very nature describes what students should know or can do by thetime of graduation. The implication is therefore, that lifelong learning and a global perspectivemust originate within the 4-year engineering curriculum/program. The
