. universities), acquireworld-class knowledge, and benefit the global economy by way of engineering contributions.However, graduate students from Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) are generally understudied withinthe broader population of international engineering students. This is noteworthy becauseindividuals from SSA have among the highest rates of degree attainment, specifically inengineering and other STEM fields. Students from some West African countries like Nigeriahave among the highest levels of educational training of SSA students and Black populationsmore broadly.Expanding research on Black students from West Africa (WAFR) (a region within SSA) isparticularly important since not all Black students are the same. This work responds to a growingcall for

Moreover,international virtual exchange programs are not associated with high cost and investmentcompared to study abroad programs and are timely and more flexible; hence can be adopted asan alternative or supplement to study abroad programs [13].IVE allows for international and intercultural interactions among students, which substantiallylowers the barriers for participating in such exchange. It is clear that IVE has potential tocontribute to sustainability, and develop the ability to collaboratively contribute to the alleviationof global sustainability issues, such as climate change [15].The InVEST (International Virtual
