One concern is that the overall efforts of engineering schools toincorporate international experiences that promote global preparedness in the undergraduatecurriculum are still “in their infancy.” 2 Engineering students participate in internationalengineering programs in disturbingly low numbers. For example, among the 283,332 U.S.students in higher education who studied abroad for academic credit in the 2011-2012 academicyear, engineering students represented only 3.9%, (11,000).9 Moreover, the number of U.S.engineering students studying abroad has fluctuated over the past decade. There was a 1.3%increase in the number from 2010-2011 to 2011-2012; while a 9.1% decrease from 2009-2010 to2010-2011.7While
