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.

Sustainable Development Goals [3].Since its launch in the UK in 2011, the Engineering for People Design Challenge (adapted fromthe EWB Challenge originating in Australia) has provided 50,000 undergraduate students animmersive opportunity to develop competencies in globally responsible engineering. Through itsprogramming, Engineers Without Borders UK is activating a movement around globalresponsibility and has categorized globally responsible competency into 4 key principles:responsible, purposeful, inclusive, and regenerative. Aligned to this movement [3] the DesignChallenge now runs as an international effort in partnership with Engineers Without Bordersorganizations and participating academic institutions in South Africa, UK, Ireland, USA and
additional 35 countries, and Enactus-USA now operates as a division of EnactusGlobal. With 317 universities and 5,900+ student participants in the U.S. alone, Enactus-USAremains the largest country operation in the global organization [3]. The Enactus United StatesNational Exposition, a national competition, allows project teams to showcase the collectiveimpact of their community outreach efforts. The winners of these national competitions are theninvited to compete at the Enactus World Cup [4].This research looks at the organization comprehensively from top to bottom. It was hypothesizedthat the context in which each project resides may influence adoption of practices and guidelinesprovided from the upper levels of the organization, creating a

An example Challenge Question is: "As an American engineer/scientist, you have been invited by an NGO to help design an 'appropriate, sustainable, and socially responsible' water system for a village in northern Tanzania. The design team includes engineers and scientists from the U.S., the Netherlands, Kenya, and Tanzania because the NGO is based and operates in those countries. How prepared are you to enter this work situation? What knowledge and capabilities do you have and what do you lack?"Student responses are scored on a scale of 0 to 3 (0=inadequate, 1=needs improvement,2=adequate, 3=excellent).3.4 Rapid Self-EvaluationAs alluded to above, experience has shown that international

In this paper, we describe efforts to establish and analyze a new technicalcommunication lab within the engineering school at Johns Hopkins University. In its first threesemesters in operation, consultants at the Technical Communication Lab (TCL) completed over1,000 sessions for 294 students. On a post-session survey, almost all students rated their sessionexcellent, stated they would return to the TCL, and affirmed they would recommend the

In comparing perspectives from students who hadcompleted this software course in the traditional, instructor-lecture style versus the PBLapproach, the students in the latter cohort evaluated PBL to be more effective for deepknowledge and international-project experience (Olivares-Ceja et al., 2017).3. Methods3.1 Course StructureThe project-based-learning (PBL) course was designed to include minimal technical lecture bythe instructors. However, a core component of the course was a series of guest speakers whospoke about some of the “soft skills” relevant to international teamwork.

Lang connects internal and external learning opportunities [11], concluding“comprehension lies outside of the classroom,” meaning that students need time to process andimplement the traditional lecture material.Caudron [12] suggests that educators consider the following five areas when teaching students—with many of these strategies exemplified in the recent improvement of this class: (1) Make learning experiential by engaging students in cooperative learning experiences. (2) Give students control over their learning. (3) Highlight key points, as new learners are ‘surfers’ and ‘scanners’ rather than readers and viewers. (4) Motivate learning by engaging

The design of thisprogram may allow departments and institutions to extend their outreach efforts, recruitment, andstudent preparation to students nationally or internationally.Program Design and FormatThe program was designed as a five-week format that is equivalent to one summer session in thequarter system. The program's target goals included (1) increasing student experiences onimportant technical skills, (2) increasing student professional development skills, and (3)providing students with opportunities to advance their careers.

Study abroad experiences are known toprovide cultural immersion that exposes students to different social situations, and when relatedto the students’ academic program, these experiences provide technical diversity, or differentways to handle professional situations, that otherwise would not be experienced in the classroomor home institution (Downey et al., 2006; Lucena et al., 2008).

What led you to pursue engineering? Did you grow up with exposure to engineering in your family? 2. What led you to the United States? What were some of your preconceived notions about the country and being international in the U.S.? Were these true? 3. What was your perception of engineering as a career before you embarked on pursuing education and career opportunities in the United States? How have these perceptions changed
