Althoughsignificant progress has been shown to promote gender equality in society, women holdingpositions in the higher echelons of predominantly male-centric STEM fields remain a rarephenomenon [2].

connectedness and interdependence ofworld cultures and economies. With the Information Age, globalization went into overdrive.Advances in computer and communication technology launched a new global era and redefinedwhat it meant to be “connected” [1]. Over recent years, the engineering field, among others, haswitnessed the power of connectedness as a catalyst for breakthroughs. Often these breakthroughsresult from cultural exchanges - the process of sharing and experiencing ideas, knowledge, andpractices across different cultures [2]. Specific to engineering, the cultural exchanges create amelting pot of ideas and influences from around the world through bringing togetherprofessionals from diverse backgrounds.
