has provided an opportunity for the students to createa personal definition and agenda encompassing sustainable practices, culminating in a teamproject incorporating sustainable design and development solutions, which are framed aroundsuch concepts as Human Centered Design and Integrated Project Delivery. The significance ofthis paper is to serve as a model case study presenting lessons learned from the leaders of theprogram to help others developing study-abroad programs to better understand the challenges ofbuilding a successful partnership among international universities.Future research should look at other short study abroad programs and investigate how theyfacilitate the development of professional skills across cultures.

authors,but its presentation and analysis is left for subsequent papers.ConclusionsEmpathy as well as innovation-related self-efficacy and interests are believed to help engineerscreate solutions that better match the needs of their end-users, whether they were designing in thecontext of a larger firm or a startup. However, research on the effect of engineering education onthe development of empathy is virtually nonexistent, and even studies linking empathy toinnovation outcomes are rare. This study takes a first step towards evidence-based practice bydemonstrating that graduate students’ self-reported empathy (as measured by perspective takingtendencies) as well as their innovation self-efficacy (as measured by confidence in design

This paper presents a framework called CCAARR (Choosing, Conditioning, Assessing,Allocating, Realizing, and Recognizing) for nurturing such a symbiotic relationship betweenfaculty development and institution building (Figure 1). Its use can help in identifying potentialleaders among college faculty members to successfully carry out institution building activities.Faculty development activity and institution building activities, in that sense, support each otheror have a “symbiotic relationship” between them.
