knowledge through exploration and collaboration.Second, teamwork should be at the core of the activity. Students are divided into groups andassigned different roles based on their disciplinary backgrounds and expertise. They mustcollaborate effectively by communicating, sharing information, coordinating tasks, andresolving conflicts. This cooperative process not only sharpens students' sense of teamworkbut also allows them to experience firsthand the integration of interdisciplinary knowledge.Third, opportunities should be provided for students to engage with professional practicecommunities and collaborate with actual stakeholders such as industry experts, companyrepresentatives, and community members. Through these collaborations, students can

Resultsindicated that this approach supports the development of in-demand competencies such asTeamwork, Problem-solving and Analysis. In addition, students’ performance and retention rateswere improved.The informal network ‘Active Learning in Engineering Education’ (ALE) has been promotingActive Learning since 2001. ALE creates opportunities for practitioners and researchers ofengineering education to collaboratively learn how to foster learning of engineering students.The activities in ALE are centered on the

sustainability," underscoring the importance of developing competencies that enableengineers to operate effectively in diverse, globalized environments.Global competence encompasses adaptability, intercultural communication, and sustainabilityawareness, allowing engineers to engage with people from various backgrounds and addressglobal, intercultural, and local issues [2]. For example, the TA VIE project [3] highlights howinternational mobility experiences enhance critical competencies among engineering students,including communication, flexibility, and collaboration skills. However, research indicates thatgraduates often lack essential global competencies, particularly in interpersonal communication,adaptability, and engineering self-efficacy [1

The version of the Virtual Exchangedescribed here was executed during the Fall of 2023.3. LEARNING OBJECTIVESThe student learning objectives for this virtual exchange were: 1. Design a biomedical engineering solution tailored to a specific global health problem. 2. Explore multiple perspectives on engineering and global health. 3. Communicate effectively across different cultures. 4. IMPLEMENTATION For 7 weeks, 20 graduate students fromUF, and 12 undergraduate and 2 graduatestudents from PUJ collaborated to identify a Beforespecific health problem

These findings point to potential challenges and also personalbenefits for engagement in CER among FB faculty.The literature has documented that civic engagement among immigrants can help them integrateinto American society [31], [32], [33]. This sometimes takes the form of “bounded solidarity”where they particularly devote their engagement to groups in the country with shared ethnicity[32]. Engagement in their community may also serve to reduce discrimination that immigrantssometimes face. Giving back locally may also help immigrants feel successful [28]. Almost nopublished research exploring “community engagement” and FB academics

morestrategic approach to the development of academic programs that integrate applied research, technologytransfer, and industry collaboration. Furthermore, rapid changes beyond academic programs necessitatethe reinvention of the educational approach.A highlight of this study is its focus on the semiconductor and chip industry, a crucial sector for thedevelopment of advanced technologies and economic competitiveness of regions. The importance ofsemiconductors in today's global economy, particularly in areas such as computing, automotive, andtelecommunications, underlines the urgent need to strengthen research and development capabilities inthis field. Universities, as generators of knowledge and facilitators of technology transfer, play anessential
