concern is evident 7.Engineering programs have recognized that they must produce globally competent graduateswho, by working cross culturally, and beyond national boundaries can effectively identifyopportunities, understand market forces, and successfully commercialize new technologies. Thiscall has come from professional organizations including the National Academy of Engineering(NAE) and its widely quoted The Engineer of 2020, the American Society of EngineeringEducation and the American Society for Mechanical Engineers 8, 9. As a result, a small, butgrowing number of engineering programs now imbed international experiences in their curricula.There is a second concern: Can these graduates become world citizens?

, professional engineers require not only technological know-how, but also a set of key professional skills and broad understanding of contemporary issues. Critical to efforts to prepare local engineering undergraduates for careers in today’s economy, it is argued, is a rethinking of how engineers are educated. In this paper, the major aspects of calls for reform are highlighted, with a discussion of suggested pedagogical approaches and changes in learning environment that can better prepare engineers for the roles they will play in the 21st century. One set of innovations which appears to be having positive impacts in this direction are the efforts of the Arts and Science Program at a small Middle Eastern
