served as a key leader and member of the UW OMA&D Outreach and Recruitment Unit that contributed to two consecutive years of increased underrepresented freshmen student enrollment at the UW. In her current capacity as the Director for the Pacific Northwest Louis Stokes Alliance for Minority Participation (LSAMP) Pro- gram at the UW, she strives to increase the recruitment, retention and graduation rates for underrepre- sented students in STEM disciplines while providing experiential and research opportunities. Through the LSAMP Program she was able to co-write the OMA&D/UW College of Engineering STEM focused study abroad seminar to Brisbane, Australia. This was selected for a best practice model workshop at

teaching and learning for engineering faculty. In his research Dominik May focuses, inter alia, on future requirements for science and engineering graduates, such as interna- tional competence, in order to become successful engineers in a globalized professional world. Therefore he designs and investigates respective educational strategies with a special focus on online solutions and the integration of remote laboratories. For his research and the development of several transnational on- line courses he benefits from his working experience in international companies and a broad international professional network. Furthermore Dominik May is founding member of both the Engineering Education Research Group at the Center

problemthe cluster faces is the need for successful approaches for Asia. The reason is that efficientpractices for Europe had poor effect in Asia-Pacific as different intercultural aspects andvarious details had to be considered to ensure success.This paper describes new practices which have been implemented to solve this problem. First,a Russian research university engaged in research for the cluster was selected as a site whichhelps the cluster with challenging process of internationalization. Next, a representative officeof this Russian university was established in Vietnam to balance cultural, linguistic,psychological, and administrative issues. This office employs Vietnamese graduates of thisuniversity and coordinates cooperation between

In engineering education, it is an effective mode in which toteach design28 and can closely model engineering practice: in a typical course, teams ideate,design, and prototype an engineering product. The types of skills developed in project-basedcourses, including teamwork, communication, and self-directed research, are congruent withbroader professional goals for graduating engineering students. Finally, current accreditationguidelines for U.S. schools require a capstone design course for all engineering programs26.Therefore major U.S

To embrace this challenge, universities also devise listsof ‘graduate attributes’, which they actively promote among the student population andencourage staff to embed into course designs (e.g. the University of Glasgow ‘GraduateAttributes Matrix’: http://www.gla.ac.uk/students/attributes/).These newly-identified requirements must in turn impact pre-sessional courses, i.e. languageand study skills provision offered to international students prior to their postgraduate study atan overseas university.

Other questions sought to determine whether the participants would be interested in pursuingengineering education research after their exposure to the workshop. For example, when asked “Will yoube undertaking any engineering education research project?”, 65% of respondents indicated that they wereplanning to pursue engineering education research in the future with one respondent commenting “Yes.Would like to explore areas like learning theories and applications, continuous assessment, enhancingspatial thinking capabilities and design thinking.” Another respondent even indicated that after thisworkshop he or she intended to pursue a PhD in Engineering Education
