Languagecommunicative competence is the key factor for successful social and professionalcommunication in a cross-cultural environment. However, in practice linguistic knowledgeitself is a necessary but insufficient determinant of cross-cultural interaction. Psychologicalattitude, or readiness to communicate with people speaking another language, is alsoimportant.

To remedy this, we solicited input andbuy-in from a range of individuals to ensure the program’s future, as well as to build “bench-depth.”While the explicit target audience was engineering majors, the program was also open to non-engineering majors with suitable STEM backgrounds.
