for graduate students and postdoctoral scholars. ThePROMISE AGEP: Maryland Transformation (AGEP-T) project is dedicated to increasing thenumber and diversity of PhD graduates in the STEM fields (Science, Technology, Engineering andMathematics), with a focus on developing a new generation of professors. Our goal for 2014 is toprovide graduate students with more experiences that go beyond a traditional undergraduate student-based study abroad program. We seek to develop programs that open doors outside of the U.S. toprovide graduate students w with groups of experiences that will lead to international jobopportunities and long-term research collaborations.IntroductionAs the University of Maryland Baltimore County (UMBC: An Honors University in

Domestic Undergraduate Research Experiences1. IntroductionThis paper presents the results of a study that examines how international and domesticundergraduate research experiences affect the intercultural maturity of students in science,technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) fields. This question is timely given theincreasingly multinational nature of research collaborations. In its 2014 Science Indicators, theNational Science Foundation (NSF) reported that 35% of U.S. articles published in 2012 wereinternationally coauthored, up from 32% in 2010, with U.S.-Japan coauthored papers comprising7% of this total. Internationally coauthored papers in science and engineering now comprise one-fourth of all papers worldwide.1 The percentage of U.S
