Vision of the ProgramThis project has significant institutional support, as Penn State and UNI entered into a university-wide strategic partnership agreement. UNI provides local resources, faculty, coordination andlocal students. At Penn State, the Cross-cultural Engagement and STEM Program has beenadded as a faculty-led program in its portfolio of approved perennial study abroad programs.The Cross-cultural Engagement and STEM Program represents a joint educational initiative,focusing on cultural immersion, exchange and STEM activities between Penn State and UNI.

To make the matter even more complex, these perspectives differfrom school to school (e.g., from the business school to the engineering school) and also fromstudent level to student level (e.g., from undergraduate student to graduate student).1Business schools were the initial locus for entrepreneurship education, although a fewengineering programs such as the one at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology can laylegitimate claim to being pioneers of the genre.

student sustainability knowledge. By applying the taxonomy to studentsustainability definitions constructed by a cohort of seniors enrolled in a CEE capstone designcourse at Georgia Tech, the following conclusions were reached.1. A majority of students demonstrated a uni-structural or multi-structural understanding of sustainability, which suggests that additional integration of sustainability into the curriculum may aid students in developing more expert-like knowledge.2. Students in CEE most captured aspects of environmental sustainability and intergenerational equity in their sustainability definitions, which is similar to other engineering and non- engineering students.3.

back to the existing work on engineering students’ attitudes and learningabout social responsibility to consider the opportunities and pitfalls of integrating CSR intoteaching and learning about social responsibility more generally.1. IntroductionCSR is a controversial concept, and interpretations of CSR are deeply informed by one’spersonal and political views [5]. Proponents of CSR, for example, view it as a vehicle fortransforming businesses to create shared economic, social and environmental value forthemselves and their stakeholders. In contrast, some skeptics from inside of the business worldview CSR as an intrusion on free market principles (see [6] for an early and famous example).And critics of capitalism in general argue that CSR

To better preparestudents to become more effective citizens and problem solvers in our increasinglyinterconnected, globalized world, the kind of thinker who contemplates complex globalproblems, the engineering and technology education curriculum must move to a more globaleducational model, and in particular, one that embraces integrating innovation capabilities andcompetencies that develop

Transfer readiness is impacted by counseling,advice from students and faculty, and an understanding of the academic requirements of thenew institution [11]. Another prominent factor impacting students’ success in four year completion aftertransfer is integration into the social aspects of the new institution.
