Examples of project topics include "Energy Efficient Street Lighting”,“Bicycle-Powered Electrical Generating System”, “Bicycle for Long Distance Ride”, and“Bio-Mass Fuel to Run a Scooter/Automobile”.Some of the goals of the international design collaboration project include developingcommunication skills in students, and exposing students to other cultures. The intention is torespond to increased demand for graduates that are familiar with engineering and design methodsused in other countries. Recognizing that globalization may be the dominant paradigm inmanufacturing for at least the next generation, technical universities are encouraged

What they find in our educational system isdifferent from anything they have encountered in their school career.Surprisingly, there is very little literature on the differences between American engineeringeducation and engineering education overseas. To be sure, there are many articles on theexperiences of foreign graduate students in the U.S. [2, 3, 5] and comparing the experience ofAmerican and international students [6]. There are also studies of how to relate to internationalstudents [1, 4]. These are very useful, but it is this author’s belief that we cannot understandtheir expectations unless we know something about the educational systems from which theycome.2.
