engineering student, the first point the AIrecommended for consideration was “curriculum compatibility,” saying that “Engineeringcourses often have a strict sequence of prerequisites. Ensuring that the courses you take abroadwill be recognized by your home institution is crucial. This might require detailed planning anddiscussions with academic advisors” (OpenAI, 2024). In summary, both academic reports andbroader conversations suggest that curricular complexity can be a challenge for students studyingabroad in engineering. However, no studies have attempted to measure this relationship, whichwe wanted to explore in our own context at Purdue University.Characterizing the Complexity of the Curriculum With the aim of providing metrics to support

This includes language or communication styles, government, and cultural values, inaddition to new approaches to solutions and ways of viewing the world.

In 2022, we heldworkshops in March and October, with 32 and 47 participants, respectively, which includedstudents from 9 different institutions spanning five states and territories.Throughout critical points in the program, students evaluated their learning and provided surveyfeedback. The program organizers also performed a direct assessment of the student projects.From these data, we found that student learning progressed throughout the workshop. We plan tocontinue hosting these workshops and believe they positively impact student development andchange perspectives in engineering design, allowing them to understand culture’s influence onengineering design better.MethodsApproval: This study was carried out with Institutional Review
