While experiencing other cultures firsthand provides themost comprehensive international experiences, other alternate options should be explored toincrease the global competence of the 98% of college students that are not currently getting thebenefits of international exposure.References:[1] E.

However, there have been multiple instances throughout the journey whenwe would almost have to give up when significant challenges emerged.The strategies that we have used to overcome those challenges to enable this successful initiativeof an engineering faculty-led course will be shared in this paper.

Although the National ScienceFoundation amended its award process in 2018 to include two additional types of IRES programsaimed at graduate students, this work-in-progress paper focuses solely on the international cohortexperience, what the NSF now calls Track I: IRES Sites (IS).

]. Students scored similarly to their country rankings in other cultural traits regardlessof the students’ areas of study. For example, students from the five engineering majors scoredsimilarly to Ecuador´s country ranking for the Uncertainty Avoidance dimension.One of the dimensions that posed more significant differences between the majors was uncertaintyavoidance. We found consider this is for several reasons. First, there are different disciplinaryperceptions and motivations regarding accepting risks. For example, disciplines like industrial andsystems engineering have relatively low uncertainty avoidance [39] because of the many differentcareer paths students can take and how flexible is the discipline in terms of the type of problemsthey solve

following two questions: First, how did EC2000 affect the learning outcomes ofABET-accredited students? Second, what impact did EC2000 have on organizational policiesand practices, educational policies and practices that helped improve student learningoutcomes? A large amount of evidence collected in the research showed that theimplementation of the EC2000 had a positive impact on engineering programs, studentexperience, and student learning.In response to the enthusiastic attention of the China’s government and society to the qualityassurance in engineering education s, the Higher Education Teaching Evaluation Center ofthe Ministry of Education, together with the Beijing University of Aeronautics andAstronautics, and Tsinghua University, have
