competency derives from working effectively in diverse and multicultural international environments [7]. Professionalcompetency is best defined by the ability to communicate and work in diverse teams effectively [6]. Colleges are answering the need for global engineers by offering its students various international experiences throughinternships, projects, study abroad and academic exchange, collaborative research projects, service learning projects abroad,and graduate-level international programs [9], [10]. A survey of international engineering programs reported on the types ofprograms available, their challenges, and best practices [11]. Student recruitment, program scaling, and assessment methodsare some of the major challenges faced by these

MOOC, combining online classes with face-to-face instructorguidance. In this paper, this is referred to as a blended MOOC or hybrid MOOC. When MOOCsare offered using hybrid formats, it can improve student outcomes and reduce costs [14]–[16].Results also show the impact of incorporating MOOCs in traditional classroom settings is almostequal or slightly better than face-to-face teaching environments [15]–[17].The key assumptions when designing a blended learning course are: Thoughtfully integratingface-to-face and online learning, fundamentally restructuring and replacing the course design,and class hours for effective student engagement [18]. Curriculum designers must exploreopportunities for blended MOOCs research on how factors like early
