Virginia Tech engineeringstudents can receive a dual degree from either Technische Universitat Darmstadt or the RoyalInstitute of Technology (Stockholm, Sweden)1. Students spend their senior year at the foreignfacility, then earning them a degree from this site as well as Virginia Tech.Still another consideration is that international experience does not have to be limited toacademics.

Many new technologies and modernteaching methods and paradigms have been developed during the last three decadesacross the world. Therefore, there is an urgent need to update the curricula of all subjects,especially science and engineering at KPU.The list of the subjects in the existing curriculum (without any modification) is

benefits to the participating scholarship recipientsand to the community served.Introduction As a result of the overall decrease in enrollment in engineering and the economicexpansion that has resulted from technological advancements, the U.S. is experiencing a shortageof trained mathematicians, computer scientists and engineers, a problem that has persisted formore than a decade. In 1998, the U.S. government responded by increasing the annual number oftemporary, professional-worker visas from 65,000 to 115,000 for a three year period in theAmerican Competitiveness and Workforce Improvement Act of 19981. The rational behind thisAct was to recruit foreign talent in areas of national need. The number of professional-workervisas was increased

and of immediate value to the industry. Engineering education is the process of training engineers for the purposes of initiating, facilitating, and implementing technological development in society. Preparing students who are very knowledgeable of the technical fundamentals as well as the professional skills of engineering is considered the main objective of engineering education (p. 2).”2.3 Other Post-Conflict and Developing Countries ExperienceUNESCO (1998) describes that without a sufficient number of higher education and researchinstitutions that can provide “a critical mass of skilled and educated people, no country canensure genuine endogenous and sustainable development and, in particular, developing
