moresignificant visits to the community provided a huge benefit. Also, having a long-standingrelationship with the partner community was also strongly beneficial.Fitting the EDW project into the single semester so that it could “count” as a required capstonecourse in the BS-degree curricula was helpful. However, this resulted in attracting fewerstudents outside the capstone major(s), in contrast to the year-long EDW course the first year.However, since all of the EDW students in year 1 were already interested in the developingworld as evidenced by their EWB-CU participation, fitting the EDW project into the typicalcapstone course allowed a broader range of students to experience this type of project.

Engineering curricula and other phases of college programs were modifiedto provide an alignment between colleges and industry [4]. This evolution of the discipline movedacademic institutions to have a more dynamic and adaptive curriculum.

themselves come from a demand forinnovation, not just an interest or conventional idea for an encapsulating project. Generally, theprojects come from one of two places. Most commonly, MUSE faculty (along with theconnections they have made in their previous endeavors and continued careers) generatepotential projects that will push students to innovate and create new solutions for real-worldproblems. Alternatively, students have the option of finding their own project to work on bycontacting companies for industry-based projects. As long as the project is approved by thestudents’ advising professor(s), the project can be pursued. The requirement of finding actualvalue in the project, outside of being a grade, is an essential start to creating a real

Training of students was accompanied by academic mobility of Soviet engineerswho contributed to the implementation of industrial projects in Vietnam.The decay of the Soviet Union resulted in drop in the number of joint projects in engineeringeducation. Vietnamese students also shifted their focus to other countries (such as the U.S.)offering a good system of engineering education.
