Education, 2023 Workshop on Global Engineering Design for Low-Resource SettingsBackgroundGlobal engineering is becoming more prevalent as technology increases communication andcollaboration worldwide [1]. To keep up with the ever-evolving society, global engineers mustwork on cross-cutting issues and bring a diverse mindset to work nimbly across differentenvironments with changing resources [1,2]. This adaptability requires being comfortable withdesign skills and being open to new ideas and international relations [3]. The design process iscrucial for students to experience and understand how to meet a population’s needs and iteratethrough feasible and culturally appropriate solutions.Undergraduate engineering curricula have significantly

This tension between communicative skill and technical skilldevelopment in engineering curricular design is no longer necessary or productive. Remotecollaborative work, structurally induced in part by pandemic accommodations has introducednew communication styles, work styles, and projects that arguably better support theengineering- and entrepreneurial-mindset, as reinforced by organizations like STEMNext.org [3]and KEEN’s Engineering Unleashed training programs [4].What is Engineering Communication?O*NET descriptions of communicative needs for careers in Civil

Explain how issues of social justice, power and privilege are shaped in a variety of contexts. 2. Use language and knowledge of other cultures effectively and appropriately to communicate, connect and build relationships with people in other cultural communities. 3.

In addition, Mr. Halkiyo is interested in broadening the participation of engineering education in Ethiopian universities to increase the diversity, inclusivity, equity, and quality of Engineering Education. He studies how different student groups such as women and men, rich and poor, students from rural and urban, and technologically literate and less literate can have quality and equitable learning experiences and thrive in their performances. In doing so, he focuses on engineering education policies and practices in teaching and learning processes, assessments, laboratories, and practical internships. Mr. Halkiyo

At a high level, case studiesacross Botswana (Tabulawa, 2003), South Africa (Harley et. al, 2000; Nykiel-Herbet 2004), andTanzania (Vavrus, 2009) highlight four salient barriers to curricular change: 2 1. Educators’ training on and personal experiences in learner-centered approaches is often limited (Coultas and Lewin, 2002; Schweisfurth, 2015); 2. A lack of available resources in physical learning environments can inhibit implementation of learner-centered approaches (Schweisfurth, 2015) 3.

implementation of an infrastructure within an unfamiliarcommunity, whether domestic or international, requires not only an understanding of technicalconcepts and constraints, but also the non-technical factors such as global context, powerdynamics, and culture[2]. This research seeks to demonstrate that community organizing projectsare comparable to engineering service learning projects in that they both involve engaging acommunity towards a common objective, even if it may be a social, political, or environmentalobjective in lieu of infrastructure. The platform of collaboration between the engineering teamand the client community must be built on trust and communication[3]. Without this platform,projects stand little chance of meeting the client

internationalstudents around the globe. Despite a decrease in the enrollment rate of new international studentsby 34% for undergraduates and 45% for graduates compared to 2019/2020, close to 1 millionstudents still chose to come to the US for their education [1]. More than 80% of these students arepursuing advanced degrees in STEM [2]. Why has the US been able to attract so many internationalstudents into STEM for higher education? Several reasons have been suggested in the literature -the availability of state-of-the-art research labs, opportunities to embark on ground-breakingresearch, the presence of highly qualified researchers, and the benefits of working withintellectuals from other parts of the world [3]. It is humbling to observe from the literature

Five to sevenstudents in each of the three tracks were interviewed about their experiences and decision-making process for choosing a track. Using Mazzarol and Soutar's [8] theoretical framework ofthe push-pull model of international exchange choices, we qualitatively analyzed the answers forthe push factors. Push factors in their decisions are the motivations that drive the decision tostudy abroad, including what the student hopes to gain from the experience. This study appliesthis framework to a unique context. Results of this study can inform U.S. institutions about whatstudents value when making study abroad
