With 317 universities and 5,900+ student participants in the U.S. alone, Enactus-USAremains the largest country operation in the global organization [3]. The Enactus United StatesNational Exposition, a national competition, allows project teams to showcase the collectiveimpact of their community outreach efforts. The winners of these national competitions are theninvited to compete at the Enactus World Cup [4].This research looks at the organization comprehensively from top to bottom.

future deployment of a virtual remote learning program that may better prepareincoming students without the challenges related to an in-person format. The design of thisprogram may allow departments and institutions to extend their outreach efforts, recruitment, andstudent preparation to students nationally or internationally.Program Design and FormatThe program was designed as a five-week format that is equivalent to one summer session in thequarter system. The program's target goals included (1) increasing student experiences onimportant technical skills, (2) increasing student professional development skills, and (3)providing students with opportunities to advance their careers. The program was organized intoa morning session focused on

research, Passow and Passow[2] found that ‘Technical competence is inseparably intertwined with effective collaboration’.That is, communication and collaboration skills are just as important as problem solving skills tothe engineering process.Increasingly, educators and industrial leaders have recognized that engineering students also arequire a new set of skills to be successful in solving global problems that have developed in aninterdependent world [3]. Parkinson et al [4], has described 13 specific skills or abilities ascollectively “global competencies”. Among the most important of these skills are: 1) an ability to appreciate other cultures, 2) an ability to work proficiently within a team of ethnic and cultural diversity

forinternationalizing in higher education is highly placed on study abroad initiatives for domesticstudents and the attraction of international students to U.S. institutions [2]. In this endeavor, theU.S. is historically considered the most popular destination for international students, with overone million international students in the academic year 2018-2019 [3]. In terms of study abroad,the participation of U.S. students (excluding international students) has significantly increasedover the past decades from 55,000 in 1989-1990 [4] to 341,175 in the academic year 2017-2018[3].

education at the program level.2.2 ConnotationFrom the perspective of etymology, the term “mechanism” originated from the Greek word“mechane”, which refers to the structure and working principle of machinery. From adisciplinary perspective, “mechanism” is mostly used in natural science, and it is also used insocial science. The application of “mechanism” in social science began in the late 1940s.Specifically, the dimensions of “mechanism” in social science include the structure, function,formation establishment form and carrier of the mechanism [3]. Regarding the formation ofmechanism, there are two viewpoints, i.e. historical evolutionism and constructivism.According to the internal quality assurance practice carried out by colleges and

learningIntroductionTeaching ethical practices in an engineering classroom has manifold challenges. Engineers travelto diverse locations, interact with people from different cultures, and solve critical problems for aworkable solution for all stakeholders. Sensitivity to other cultures, ideas and perspectives is afacet of professional attitudes that young engineers find difficult to learn if the teaching isconfined to physical classrooms. Regular interactions with global peers can make learningengaging, encourage curiosity, and break the barriers of land. Students can come to know aboutrich cultural heritages, social beliefs, and mature through cherishing individual differences.Engineering students need international exposure to become global problem solvers.In this

work comfortably within holistic, multidisciplinary contexts to solvecontemporary challenges. Moreover, engineers are expected to have the ability to work on multi-national teams designing products in one part of the world that will be manufactured in anotherand sold in yet another. In short, engineering is in itself, a global enterprise [2]. Trainedindividuals are needed who understand participatory development and have the technical skills toaddress complex issues. As noted by William Wulf [3], President Emeritus of National Academyof Engineering:“…engineering is now practiced in a global, holistic business context, and engineers must designunder constraints that reflect that context.

her theory of in/authenticity through a study of gender roles withinengineering workplaces [2], [3]. Faulkner [2], [3] first used the term “gender inauthenticity” todescribe the engineering dualities. Her theory examined the division of engineering into“technical” and “social” realms, where the technical was seen as “real” engineering.Stereotypically men were expected to engage in the technical realm, while women were expectedto engage more with the social realm. Faulkner continued this research and expanded on genderin/authenticity in later work [2], [3], [25], [26]. Within many engineering firms she discoveredthat certain engineering roles were stereotypically gendered (e.g. technical work for men;personal interactions for women). Thus
