internationalstudents around the globe. Despite a decrease in the enrollment rate of new international studentsby 34% for undergraduates and 45% for graduates compared to 2019/2020, close to 1 millionstudents still chose to come to the US for their education [1]. More than 80% of these students arepursuing advanced degrees in STEM [2]. Why has the US been able to attract so many internationalstudents into STEM for higher education? Several reasons have been suggested in the literature -the availability of state-of-the-art research labs, opportunities to embark on ground-breakingresearch, the presence of highly qualified researchers, and the benefits of working withintellectuals from other parts of the world [3]. It is humbling to observe from the literature

Thus, technical communicationtraining merits deeper investigation and creative solutions. At the 2017 ASEE Meeting, weintroduced the MIT School of Engineering Communication Lab, a discipline-specific technicalcommunication service that is akin to a writing center, but

seen double digit percent growth (2018: 27.1%, 2019: 15.8%, 2020: 19.5%). In fact, the engineering technology program enrollments currently represent 7.1% of the college’s undergraduate enrollment, the highest it has been in the past eleven years. In retrospect, it is clear that the move to General Engineering has increased the visibility of engineering technology in the college. More importantly, when students have an opportunity to experience the first-year math, science and engineering courses prior to choosing a discipline, they are able to make a more informed choice based on their interests, career goals, and natural abilities. 2) Impact on Pathways into Engineering Technology – Prior to 2014, the
course.IntroductionAs universities strive to graduate engineering students who can make an impact on society,engineering leadership programs have become more prominent. The National Academy ofEngineering [1] as well as various engineering professional societies highlight the importance ofleadership skills in engineering [2-6]. This trend is reinforced by the newly approved ABETCriteria for the 2019-20 review cycle that includes “the ability to function effectively on a teamwhose members together provide leadership … establish goals, plans tasks, and meet objectives”[7]. With these ABET changes come questions about how to assess leadership. Because theconversation among educators on developing leadership in engineering students is growing, thisresearch seeks to
