Engineering Education, 2008 Summer Research Program for Meaningful International ExperienceAbstract An important aspect of engineering education in the 21st century must include thebuilding of international awareness. A practical and highly impactful way for engineeringinstitutions to foster this awareness is to provide international research programs andencourage students to take part in them, for experiences that are meaningful bothacademically and socially, and that will prove to be invaluable to them as workingprofessionals. With the “flattening” of the world – or the increased competition in theglobal marketplace due to advancements in web technology – it is of great value forengineering students to learn about other cultures

A number of research publications summarize Page 13.15.2experiences to bring Chinese students into American engineering programs. Almost allthe researches share the same findings that Chinese students are hardworking 3 andperform well in science and technology, especially in mathematics, logic reasoning andother related disciplines.2

It also outlines benefits to each partner in engaging in this type of partnership, and recommendations to other institutions wanting to design a similar program. Findings from the study can be used to inform curriculum and design of future international experiences for engineering students. Partnerships between universities and industry have long been important for schools ofengineering. In the U.S., growth in university-industry partnerships began in earnest in the1980’s due in part to changes in national technology policies which sought to promotecooperative research and increase diffusion of technologies

Much effort has been expended to address what, exactly, is meant byglobal competency, why is it important, how it can be measured, and how it can be improved.By now, the importance of global competency for everyone, and engineers in particular [2,3], hasbeen well documented and evidence of the ability to work in an international, multi-culturalenvironment is valued by
