involving teaching,research, and administrative duties (Campbell & Slaughter, 1999).Utilization of University ResourcesAcademic entrepreneurship can lead to the misuse of university resources, such as laboratories,libraries, servers, offices, equipment, supplies, and personnel, for a researcher’s private ventures.For example, faculty may use university-maintained research facilities to develop a product ortechnology that directly benefits their startup. They may use software, databases, computationaltools, or data generated through university-funded research for purposes beyond academic work.They may also assign startup work to graduate and undergraduate students or other researchpersonnel funded by the university, blurring the line between

students’ EM three Cs, and students’ increased appreciation of multiculturalism through in-person cultural immersion experiences.Introduction s engineering demand rises and globalization intensifies, fostering multiculturalism is vital forAglobal solutions. Transformative learning theory (TLT), developed by Dr. Jack Mezirow in the 1970s, explains how adult learners shift perspectives when confronted with challenging experiences[1,2]. While TLT guides culturally responsive teaching in international teacher training, it remains underutilized in science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) contexts [1]. This research study explores the impact of international experiences on the development
