IntroductionBackgroundThe objective of this paper is to provide useful recommendations for planning and executingfaculty-led study abroad programs based on the authors’ experience. In the summer of 2015,UTEP and CETYS conducted a study abroad program funded by the 100,000 Strong in theAmericas Innovation Fund. The program was a real success, but the planning and executionpresented continuous challenges that required quick thinking and adaptability from theorganizers. These lessons are captured in

This experimental rig has become aresearch platform in The Cooper Union’s Automotive Lab with uses in various courses and highschool level STEM outreach programs.MotivationThe initial motivation for this experiment came from the ME160 Engineering Experimentationcourse at The Cooper Union. Engineering Experimentation places emphasis on “data collectionand statistical reduction, computational methods, and written and oral presentation skills”1.
