SCI is a ten-week domestic research program in which sophomore and juniorstudents complete quantum-related research internships with faculty at an urban university.This study is timely given that science and engineering (S&E) research is an increasinglyinternational effort. In its 2015 Science Indicators, the most recent year available, the NationalScience Board noted that 33% of science and engineering papers published in the U.S. in 2013were internationally coauthored; at the same time international citations among papers by U.S.authors increased from 43% to 53% between 1996 – 2012 [1]. This shows the increasingimportance of international research and collaborations for science & engineering researchers inthe U.S. Furthermore, in

The psychological theories highlight personal characteristics that defineentrepreneurship. Simpeh has included “traits theory” and “need for achievement theory” in thepaper 10. The “trait theory” hypothesizes that an individual has inborn qualities or potentials thatnaturally make him an entrepreneur. The issue with the trait model is that, there is no consistentevidence of unique entrepreneurial characteristics 11. Simpeh also quotes McClelland‟s

Results of Gitsham et al.’s [28] survey of CEOs and other executives focus on how softskills and hard skills are beneficial for leaders at all levels of the organization. Specifically,acquisition of interpersonal skills may provide added benefits of knowing and understanding ofhow to interact with people with different cultures and apply the skills to improve organizationalperformance. Soft skills are a set of interpersonal and social skills, whereas hard skills includethe technical or administrative procedures in which the results are quantifiable and measurable[43

The global perspectives ofengineering students in this study was measured via the Global Perspective Inventory (GPI) [11].This instrument was used because it closely aligns with global perspective constructs the studyaims to measure. The GPI is also a validated instrument and widely used for a basis forcomparison against non-engineers. Additionally, a number of studies have used the GPI toexamine the impact of study abroad experiences with consistent results and strong statisticalreliability and validity [11, 12, 13].

Both of these instruments use Likert scales, which introduces uncertainty in theintervals between scale points. The Likert scale data was treated as ordinal and a nonparametricMann-Whitney U-test was used to determine group differences based on Mean Rank. Data werematched for pre/post, resulting in 18 paired data sets (11 US students and 7 Central Asianstudents).Significant differences were identified between Mean Rank of students from the US universityand students from the

For example, our colleague WeiWang in the preceding scenario is not simply the individual person Wei Wang. Instead, Wei is aplant manager who supervises eight engineers, he is his parent’s son, he is your colleague, etc.In line with this conception, Wei likely gives a great deal of consideration regarding hisrelationships with his employees. Focused on interpersonal relationships, it is likely that Wei willbe very hesitant to say anything negative about the engineers he supervises, as doing so couldpotentially have detrimental effects on their lives and careers.
