‘transformative learning’ may be relevant [30-34].Mezirow [30] described the goal of higher education is to help individuals become “moreautonomous, socially responsible thinkers”, and linked transformation theory to moral values[30, p. 8-9]. The large differences in culture during international travel or engagement perhapsresult in discomfort or ‘disorienting dilemmas’ [31-34]. Thus, one’s awareness of needs isheightened, one recognizes the role that engineering and technology could play in helping, andone’s sense of responsibility to help through engineering is catalyzed. However, transformativelearning theory stresses the role of critical reflection and discourse in transforming experienceinto changes in one’s attitudes, values, and/or knowledge [30

In this work-in-progress, we tried tounderstand international engineering students’ learning outcomes and the associatedlearning experiences.Literature ReviewThe number of international students engaged in higher education has been continuallygrowing, from 2 million in 1999 to 5 million in 2016[5]. Also, nearly one-third ofOECD study-abroad students at tertiary education level were enrolled in STEM(Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) fields of study, with 17% of themin engineering, manufacturing, and construction [5]. Hence, the investigations of thelearning experiences of international engineering students have continued

consider herein are the course objectives and theassessment tools used in the course. The course objectives, as with most engineering courses,were selected to map to the program outcomes for Civil Engineering curricula put forth by theAccreditation Board for Engineering and Technology [10]. This mapping is meant to show thatthe course, by having students meet the course objectives, is achieving the goal of meeting theABET program outcomes. The mapping of the course objectives seen in Table 1 is based on theABET program outcomes of the 2011-2012 evaluation cycle. These outcomes have changedsomewhat since the origin of the course in 2011. However, the current outcomes are similarenough to those of 2011-2012 that the mapping should clarify the goal
different impacts that were associated with differentformats of international learning experiences.Literature ReviewEngineers’ training has experienced an increasing call for the development of globalcompetencies, particularly from the demand of fast technological advance andincreasingly global engineering practice. Against this context, multiple internationallearning experiences were proposed to create opportunities for students to fosterglobal competencies. Such learning experiences include study-abroad programs,international service learning projects [6], global internships [7], courses with a globalfocus, second language course [8], and many others.To prepare engineering students for globalization, many universities have establishedmultiple

Prelewicz [8] model proposes5 tiers of competencies that engineers must develop throughout their career: 1. Tier 1 - Personal effectiveness competencies: these include interpersonal skills, professionalism, integrity, initiative, adaptability and flexibility, dependability and reliability, and lifelong learning. 2. Tier 2 – Academic competencies: including reading, writing, mathematics, science and technology, communication, critical and analytical thinking, computer skills. 3. Tier 3 – Workplace competencies: although some of these are expected to be
