Since the students were traveling to a foreign country and collaborating withEthiopians, it is important that they are respectful of the values and culture of the people there.Furthermore, it is crucial for the students to recognize their privilege and cultural differenceswhen communicating with the hospital staff.ConclusionNU-IGH plans to continue and build upon its model from the surgical lamp project in futuredesign projects. Its design group’s next project after the surgical lamp is a low-cost ECGelectrodes project based on the group’s needs assessment from their last trip to SPHMMC.

Motivated by these findings, the VIPcoordinators conducted a retrospective study of peer evaluations, applying social networkanalysis to quantify student interactions and identify patterns across the program. Resultsindicate that within the VIP Program, students interact more often with other majors and otherraces/ethnicities than their own major and race/ethnicity.

In order to evaluate andassess new experiments and projects, prior to introducing them in our curriculum, we use summerprograms with different students to develop content and test learning objectives. We introduce thenew topics to a cohort of students of diverse cultural background from local and internationalstudents. Our methodology is similar for the curricular development of each program (Figure 1)and consists of four main and distinct stages: (1) planning and administrative preparation, (2)content development and small-scale testing, (3) deployment and daily student assessment, (4)reflections, modifications and adjustments for a final course implementation.

The National Academy ofEngineering [1] as well as various engineering professional societies highlight the importance ofleadership skills in engineering [2-6]. This trend is reinforced by the newly approved ABETCriteria for the 2019-20 review cycle that includes “the ability to function effectively on a teamwhose members together provide leadership … establish goals, plans tasks, and meet objectives”[7]. With these ABET changes come questions about how to assess leadership. Because theconversation among educators on developing leadership in engineering students is growing, thisresearch seeks to
