result, universities are working to include more sociotechnical content informerly purely-technical courses, with the goal of engaging students in recognizing andanalyzing the economic, political, and social aspects of technology. In the U.S., many of thefocus topics for this sociotechnical content are grounded in a U.S. context, requiring anunderstanding of the history and current state of racial and economic power structures. WhileU.S. residents are likely familiar with these structures, it is important to consider how thesetopics are encountered by international students.This work-in-progress study on international student experiences is part of a larger NSF-fundedresearch project exploring integrating sociotechnical topics in a first-year
