The transition to higher education presents a unique opportunity forstudents to expand their worldviews and develop skills necessary for global citizenship [12],[13]. Early exposure to diverse perspectives and global issues can set the foundation for ongoingintercultural learning throughout their academic careers and beyond [3].1.2 Factors Influencing Global Identity Development in Higher EducationResearch has shown that global identity development can vary based on demographic factors,including gender.

Almost no one talks about what they want to say, the types of writing they’re interested in, or what kind of writing they may have to do in the future. They do not recall a favorite example of their writing. Very few express ever having enjoyed any act of writing. Often, it seems like they barely understand the questions, because they have no self-concept of themselves as writers.” [6]It is wishful thinking to assume that there is a future where every undergraduate student is aspassionate about writing as those who have defined their careers by

Accordingly, it has caused high technological development but also a cultureof disengagement where engineers self-consider aliens to the socio-political context (Cech, 2013). On the contrary, arts, humanities, and social sciences have been charged with the stereotype ofbeing costly and inefficient, and their aims are usually not seen as clear or valuable. This phenomenon isusually evidenced in nations that value economic progress or link it to social development, which havefocused on solving society’s problems through mostly engineering-related projects, developing strongengineering career paths, and overlooking
