Capacity Building in Developing CountriesAbstractIn the pursuit of a more secure, stable and sustainable world, developing countries seek toenhance their human, institutional and infrastructure capacity. To do so they need a solidbase of technologically prepared people to effectively improve their economies andquality of life. Such a base will facilitate the infusion of foreign capital through attractionof multinational companies to invest in the developing country, assist in making the mostof foreign aid funds, and provide a basis for business development by local entrepreneurs.The World Federation of Engineering Organizations is mounting major efforts attechnical capacity building in developing countries.IntroductionAn old Chinese proverb says

Engineering Education, 2007 1 Globalization and Engineering Education for 2020IntroductionThe emerging global trends in business have a great impact on the workforce needs, and theeducation and training of the workforce. The engineers of tomorrow will be expected to functiondifferently from today as they face new ever changing work environment that includesglobalization, outsourcing and emerging technologies. What do these emerging changes andchallenges mean to the employers, the institutions that prepare engineers, and the organizationsthat assure quality? What should be their response to these trends as they unfold? In

-09 activities will be included in thepresentation at the Annual Meeting in June.BackgroundThere is no question that today’s engineering student must be prepared to work in a globaleconomy. The Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET) requires thatengineering programs provide “the broad education necessary to understand the impact ofengineering solutions in a global and societal context.”1 The National Academy ofEngineering’s report on educating the “Engineer of 2020” includes similar guidance.2 TomFriedman’s recent popular book, The World is Flat, describes in detail the globalization of theworld’s economies and repeatedly shouts the need for understanding this phenomenon.3 Animportant part of our university’s strategic plan
. Adefinition like this will help engineering universities focus the global education of their studentsto produce more competitive graduates for the international job market.IntroductionAs the world’s economy becomes more connected, so do the interactions between employeesaround the world. Engineers are particularly affected because of the rapidly changing technologythat continually transforms engineering practice1. In fact, because technology regularly crossesso many international boundaries, it has become evident that technology and internationalinteraction are “intrinsically entwined.”2 As universities regularly produce graduates who willwork abroad or work alongside coworkers from other cultures, the importance of providing aglobal education is
Technology (ABET). The guiding principle andultimate outcome of the Engineering Partnership is accreditation of the KU programs to ABETstandards. The partnership agreement is for ten years with the first three years funded. One of themeasures of the quality of engineering education of graduates and the primary step in obtaining aProfessional Engineering (PE) license in the US is passing the Fundamentals of Engineering(FE) examination. The ability of KU graduates to pass the FE exam is a primary metric of thepartnership. The Engineering Partnership is an integrated and iterative approach to improve theoverall quality of the Faculty of Engineering. This approach emphasizes improved and updatedinfrastructure and physical resources (laboratories

Students who were successful in juggling their schedules invariably came back from theirforeign study saying it was well worth the effort, and many said that it was a life changingexperience. However, it took the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET)Engineering Criteria 2000 (EC2000), and their emphasis on a global perspective, to cause theengineering programs to think seriously about requiring a foreign study experience.

Therefore, in 1985, AmericanAssociation for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) launched a long-term project called“Project 2061” that committed to reform science, mathematics and technology education.

Typical programs offer study abroad for engineering students, but some also offermulti-national teaming on projects with common objectives.Conferences and symposia have their place, but sometimes the participants need extended timefor goal-directed discussion.
