existing, industry sponsored, multi-disciplinary capstone teamproject that is required of all students.In order to assess whether this approach can increase awareness in global cultures, the MGUDS-S formwhich assesses cross cultural diversity was used to assess cultural awareness and sensitivity. Ultimatelythis form is being used to evaluate whether the international senior capstone project approach can impacta change in cross cultural diversity. This study explores the existing differences in the populations thatinvolved in existing on-going multinational projects—projects with students from Germany and Poland.Furthermore this study also attempts to evaluate the response to this survey tool from a population ofexperienced business and technical

It consist ofparticipant observation, interviews and document analysis as seen in figure 17. Field research canbe very exciting and rewarding and at the same time extremely overwhelming. It is important toknow what kind of information needs to be collected at the time of such research. Since the fieldis full of stories and actions, one can easily become lost in the scenario, hence having a biggerpicture and focusing on the specific research question(s) is a very important component of thefield study2. However, one cannot neglect important relevant incidents and make an informedapproach

The survey asked that faculty members answer the questions byplacing an X on the line for all options that may apply. The first two questions asked the facultyabout their teaching rank and work status. Faculty responded included eight full professors, fourassociate professors and three assistant professors. Eleven faculty members identified their workstatus as full-time, tenured. The other four faculty members are full-time, tenure-track.Question three asked the faculty to state the reason(s) for pursuing a teaching career in theUnited States.

As part of the growing awarenessof Globalization, both students and employers have become more interested in education abroadas a means to develop intercultural skills, instead of simply going abroad to “soak up” the cultureor embarking upon a “Grand Tour” of Europe to become cosmopolitan. Within engineering, thisshift to an intercultural emphasis has been translated into the pursuit of “global competency.”The specific term for, and the component elements of, this set of knowledge and skills can vary,but Downey et al.’s definition of what it means provides a useful umbrella: global competencefor engineers involves the “knowledge, ability, and predisposition to

It also outlines benefits to each partner in engaging in this type of partnership, and recommendations to other institutions wanting to design a similar program. Findings from the study can be used to inform curriculum and design of future international experiences for engineering students. Partnerships between universities and industry have long been important for schools ofengineering. In the U.S., growth in university-industry partnerships began in earnest in the1980’s due in part to changes in national technology policies which sought to promotecooperative research and increase diffusion of technologies

There seem to be less interest by most of the faculty interviewed in the Page 26.1197.6process by which the course content is delivered during the lecture period, and more of a concernwhether the rate of delivery would allow the instructor to finish the course on time.
