to examine the how the engineering profession has tackled the challenge ofimproving international mobilization and standards of professional engineers and engineeringservices they provide. This is often a challenge for multi-national companies andorganizations that operate trans-nationally. Future engineers will need to rethink theirlearning journey and pathways to professional recognition to be better prepared to tackle amore regionalized, integrated, and dynamic world1. Anecdotally, it appears that there is agrowing population of engineers seeking Chartered status with Engineers Australia. Therehas been recent development in support programs such as the Engineering EducationAustralia (EEA)’s Graduate Program in Engineering (GPE) to

engineering university. The A&S Program provides the core courses in the first two years of engineering studies at this institute. Over the past two years, it has been designing and implementing a comprehensive set of curricular innovations in order to better prepare local engineering undergraduates for engineering studies and careers in the energy sector. Three components of this comprehensive approach will be presented in this paper, with reference to how each was conceived, designed, and implemented. Early indications of the impacts are also shared. The paper will conclude with identifications of challenges faced and recommendations for how to better enable and support continuing enhancement of the

schools with the goals of exposing students to theSTEM fields [7]. A 40 year history of demographics and student attitudes charted in The Higher EducationResearch Institute snapshot of entering freshman classes shows a rising tide of interest in serviceduring college. In 1990 the survey found that 16.9% of students thought there was a very goodchance s/he would participate in community service or volunteer work. In 2006, this proportion Page 21.5.3grew to 26.8% and in 2011, 33.9% [8, 9]. It is clear that the orientation towards service is beingrapidly embraced by all students. Service may also be a link to attracting more students

Since the 1980’s the Asian-pacific Original Equipment Manufacturer OEMs have not only penetrated into the establishedmarkets but have also dominated it with their different production styles and suppliers’strategies. This have motivated the automotive engineers of North America and Europe topractice the Just-In-Time JIT delivery of goods and services and apply the Japanese Kanban andAndon systems to synchronize their production lines, while understanding that some of theseconcepts

as an essential component, enablingengineering candidates to span any boundaries.It is evident from the responses that the boundaries that globally prepared engineers must spanare not those within and between engineering disciplines. One respondent noted, “They(students) need to look outside the walls of their university, their community, with the U.S.This view must extend to a global scale, meaning they should have knowledge and be able toarticulate global engineering practices not only in their home state or area, but globally.” S/headded that the ability to interact with engineers from other cultures is critically important
