The results allow us to evaluate whether thesecourses measurable impacts on students’ development of global competency, in turn suggestingdirections for future curriculum development and assessment efforts. These insights will likelybe valuable to others designing global engineering courses or curricula. We begin with a reviewof relevant literature, then turn to methods, findings, and some key takeaways.Relevant literatureIn this section we review previous work in three areas: the impact of global engineering courses,frameworks for assessing global competency, and the literature on measuring individual

As new, interesting technology is introduced intoundergraduate courses or new courses introduced into the curriculum, some professors findthemselves wanting to provide new hands-on exercises for their students to support their courseobjectives.
