scientists often develop new technologies ordiscover new phenonena from basic science research and seek to identify problems they cansolve. Technology-first designers follow a design process as they work on ill-defined problemswith many uncertainties and approach tasks with no right or wrong answers, only better or worse[20], [21].The I-Corps participants follow the curriculum developed by Steve Blank to investigate thecommercialization potential of their technology and identify various uses of technologies using astandard process that entails customer discovery to identify potential partners and meetings withinvestors to gain insights on developing a viable product [22].

research-based practices, demonstration of how toproperly implement these practices in the classroom is tenuous and generally not in the scope ofthe program.2 Even though faculty members are becoming more aware of research-basededucation practices and value their use in their classrooms, the adoption of these research-basededucation practices in engineering education has not been widespread.3 For example, Pimmel(2003) demonstrated that less than half of faculty had indicated that they made changes to theirinstruction after participating in a faculty development workshop. The common face-to-faceworkshop faculty development approach is limiting because workshops are geographicallyisolating,5 adhere to a standard ‘one-size-fits-all’ curriculum

andCommitment to Relativism) according Perry’s theory (nearly 88%). Prior findings indicatedthat most of engineering undergraduate students’ epistemological development was inmultiplicity [22, 23, 31]. We speculate that different factors could have facilitated students’development in their thinking styles along the Perry’s scale. Other researchers have pointedout possible factors, such as the advisor-students interactions [8], curriculum content andstructure [24], etc. may have close association with students’ epistemic thinking. Our follow-upinterviews with students suggest that factors that are related with their internationalcollaborative educational environment may also have influenced their epistemologicaldevelopment.Preliminary results showed

We draw from work on bothengineering and science identity development throughout.Current StudyStudies that examine the development of one’s engineering and science identity often utilizeinterviews or case-study methodology [8, 15-16]. While informative, such approaches often arenot pragmatic in classroom settings with large numbers of students when the goal is to learnabout or examine changes in students’ STEM identities and aspirations in general or after using aSTEM-related program or curriculum [17].
