the possibility of Engineering Projects inCommunity Service (EPICS) as a transitional experience to engender global competency amongengineering students. The curricular-based model of EPICS supports vertically-integrated, multi-disciplinary, engineering service-learning projects at a Purdue University. Historically, thislong-standing program has paired student design teams with local, community partners. In thispaper, we document how these partnerships have been expanded to global communities, and howthe current curriculum, in both local and global contexts, can be used to engender globalcompetency in engineering students. We consider the efficacy of EPICS to engender global

Even though the creators of the SDGs recognized the need for understanding their intra-and inter-connections, limited research has been done to qualify and quantify them. For instance,the interest in the development literature since 2011 for understanding the food-energy-water(FEW) nexus (World Economic Forum 2011) requires looking at the interaction between SDGs02, 06, and 07 dealing with food, energy, and water security, respectively (Weitz et al. 2014).SDG 15 must also be included when considering the water-energy-land-food (WELF) nexus(Mohtar 2016).
