employed in private engineering practice,K-12 education, and government. Phase I provides some preliminary evidence that our initialassumption about the impact of the ISD program on engineering graduates may be correct. Inthe second phase of our assessment program we will perform a more detailed assessment toquantify this assumption.IntroductionIn today’s global economy, there is a large need for engineers to understand how to communicateand operate with foreign customers and co-workers. International education opportunities helpbreak down cultural barriers and provide engineers with the experience and knowledge to designunique solutions to innovate solutions in a global setting. Although there are more internationalopportunities to take

The University of Pittsburgh’s School of Engineering is addressing these issuesby educating a cadre of PhD researchers as part of a recently established Integrative GraduateEducation and Research Traineeship (IGERT) Program in sustainability. We present our plan tocreate an innovative sustainable engineering graduate program, with primary research foci ingreen construction and sustainable water use. This interdisciplinary initiative will involvefaculty and students from across the School. To best address global concerns, we have partneredwith the University of Campinas (UNICAMP) in Sao Paolo, Brazil to provide an eight-monthinternational research rotation for all IGERT Fellows.

occupations engaged in developing sustainable communities,mostly in their role of creating practical solutions that enable communities to thrive.Nevertheless, research in the mid-2000s identified a need to address inadequacies in the technicaland generic skills of engineers needed to deliver sustainable communities. Generic engineeringcompetencies in this context are defined as attributes, competencies, or skills that are importantto graduates across all engineering disciplines. Communication and social skills are examples [3-4], but more broadly, the identified inadequacies represent gaps in project management andleadership skills needed to create and get buy-in for a community vision [5].Our work-in-progress explores how engineers develop awareness

ERCs:8 • There is a national need for education of interdisciplinary, team-oriented PhDs. There is a collective alarm at the continued production of graduates at all levels who are totally untrained in team research and often openly antagonistic to industrially relevant research. • The goal of the ERC education programs is to develop a team-based, research- inspired, and industrial practice-oriented culture for the education of graduate and undergraduate students that will produce engineering leaders for the future.We propose that our program is directed at doing exactly that – creating interdisciplinary,team-oriented BS and PhD programs in which students will design the innovative,sustainability related products

Collaborative problem solving alsopermits the opportunity for peer-coaching, which may synergistically lead to deeper, moreinnovative learning for both the tutor and the tutored than classroom instruction and individualproblem sets alone. Practicing engineering learning in this way prepares a student to integratewith real-world teams and work to solve complex, multi-faceted problems upon graduation. However, the incorporation of digital technology in the classroom is not enough to keepcollege education relevant in the long-term to digital natives and the increasingly-digital society.Nor is collaborative problem solving a triple win for the digital native student, the school
