In all these emphases, LEAP repositions liberal education, no longer as just an option for the fortunate few, but rather as the most practical and powerful preparation for ‘success’ in all its meanings: economic, societal, civic, and personal.These themes resonate with current movements to prepare engineers for the 21st

collaborative networks a common practice for globalcompetiveness. Many engineering projects are the result of efforts of culturally diverse teamsworking collaboratively. The collaboration could be in person where teams are located in thesame site but formed by culturally diverse members or the collaboration can take place remotelywhere teams are geographically dispersed and use technology for communication andinteraction. In both scenarios, members of the team must be prepared to work with culturallydifferent peers; however, geographically dispersed teams have additional challenges to functioneffectively. As a result, many American institutions are adopting learning approaches to educateengineers with global competencies so they can work effectively in

Finally, Global Engineering Community Connectedness is the last subscale. Thissubscale refers to one’s awareness of humanity and appreciation of interrelatedness of all peopleand nations and the role that engineering can play in improving humanity, solving humanproblems via engineering technologies, and meeting human needs across national boundaries[23].Table 2: EGPI Sample Items by Selected Subscales/Constructs Subcale/Construct Sample Index Item Engineering Ethics
