today, will face profound newchallenges. Every day the men and women of this workforce will face the stress of competing inthe fast-paced world of change called the knowledge-based global economy. They will also faceeven larger challenges because the nation and world will need to call on them to seizeopportunities and solve global problems of unprecedented scope and scale.4In view of the broadening and rapidly shifting scope of the engineering profession, it isimperative to shift the focus of engineering curricula from transmission of content todevelopment of skills that support engineering thinking and professional judgment. Futureengineers will need to adapt to rapidly changing work environments and technology, direct theirown learning

collaborative networks a common practice for globalcompetiveness. Many engineering projects are the result of efforts of culturally diverse teamsworking collaboratively. The collaboration could be in person where teams are located in thesame site but formed by culturally diverse members or the collaboration can take place remotelywhere teams are geographically dispersed and use technology for communication andinteraction. In both scenarios, members of the team must be prepared to work with culturallydifferent peers; however, geographically dispersed teams have additional challenges to functioneffectively. As a result, many American institutions are adopting learning approaches to educateengineers with global competencies so they can work effectively in

-emphasizing social and economicpillars. Furthermore, most instruction on sustainability, as reported in the literature, appears tofocus on teaching the engineering student to be an engineer who practices sustainabledevelopment rather than a consumer who has a role in sustainable practice. In part, thisemphasis on the engineer's role in sustainability is a result of the Accreditation Board forEngineering and Technology (ABET)'s mandate that engineering undergraduates complete theirdegrees having achieved student outcome (c): “...an ability to design a system, component, or process to meet desired needs within realistic constraints such as economic, environmental, social, political, ethical, health and safety, manufacturability

what is good for the global community in engineering related efforts, and notjust one’s own country or group. It refers to one’s ability to make sound judgements based onglobal needs in which engineering and associated technologies can have impact on globalimprovement. Finally, Global Engineering Community Connectedness is the last subscale. Thissubscale refers to one’s awareness of humanity and appreciation of interrelatedness of all peopleand nations and the role that engineering can play in improving humanity, solving humanproblems via engineering technologies, and meeting human needs across national boundaries[23].Table 2: EGPI Sample Items by Selected Subscales/Constructs Subcale/Construct Sample Index Item Engineering Ethics
