However, there is value in integrating international programs in the engineering curriculum to provide these experiences to most students, permitting them to get a global education and increase their value to potential employers. To this end, the authors at Clemson University in the US, and Universidad de Guanajuato in Mexico worked together with an industry sponsor in a capstone design project course. The industry sponsor provided a problem common to their operations in the states of South Carolina, US and Guanajuato, Mexico and challenged the student teams to find a solution that would be as common to both locations as

One of these directions is the development of an applied research program, and ithas lead to the development of a new facility called the Autonomous Systems Laboratory (ASL)that serves as a center for research and innovative curriculum development [1]. A second directionis the proposed development of a new laboratory called the Integrated Systems EngineeringLaboratory (ISEL) that emphasizes the vertical integration of knowledge by forming a pre-requisitestructure in laboratory work that spans across multiple courses. It will be shown that this newlaboratory will cause a paradigm shift in student learning by moving from an isolated learningenvironment to an integrated learning environment
