We designed the Integrated Community-Engaged Learningand Ethical Reflection (I-CELER) framework as a means to promote the ethical becoming offuture STEM practitioners.

We begin with a literature review to discuss how cross-cultural competence istypically framed in the engineering education literature, and then review some prior studies ofCQ. We then turn to findings from our own empirical, multiple group study of CQ amongundergraduate engineering students (n=230) in five different courses/programs at two schools.We more specifically investigate whether a number of key factors impact CQ scores, includingprior international experience, foreign language proficiency, gender, and international studentstatus. As discussed, our subjects tended to have higher CQ scores as
