The students assumed therole of managers of an international team of engineers from their assigned countries and had todetermine how to lead the team effectively. In the first part of the project, each group identifiedquestions they could ask to learn about the cultural and business practices in their countries.Each student then located and communicated with an engineer from their assigned country todiscuss those questions.

Also, it was feltthat the level of knowledge and learning acquired in the senior design course was insufficient formany of the professional skills.
