most pressing science and engineering challenges are trans-national innature and many of the leading scientific and engineering resources are located outside theUnited States. In order to remain at the forefront of science, technology, engineering, andmathematics (STEM), the United States needs to nurture a globally-engaged STEM workforcecapable of performing research in an international environment. To help address this need, theNational Science Foundation’s International Research Experiences for Students (NSF-IRES)program supports the development of globally-engaged U.S. science and engineering studentscapable of performing in an international research environment.

The most recent version of this policy is as follows: The ASCE supports the attainment of a body of knowledge for entry into the practice of civil engineering at the professional level. This would be accomplished through the adoption of appropriate engineering education and experience requirements as a prerequisite for licensure.6In

currently a popular approach for learning in many Science, Technology, Engineering andMath (STEM)-related fields. Its approach is distinct from traditional classroom learning, whereinstudents find themselves as passive recipients of information. Instead, PBL requires students toaddress a problem using information and knowledge they may or may not possess. The beliefbehind project-based learning is that students benefit more from the application of theirknowledge in a group setting than from a traditional classroom model, wherein a teacher presentsstudents with concepts and information and checks to ensure students understand [2].
