Especially, Japanese engineering education has focused onengineering design. The Japan Accreditation Board for Engineering Education definesengineering design as an “open-ended and creative problem-solving process based on theknowledge of science, technology, and social sciences and humanities”[3]. Engineeringdesign is interdisciplinary and diverse problem solving related to engineering. Recently,many Japanese universities have engaged in international PBL [4][5][6]. However, there hasbeen little research on PBL’s effects in the

Mechatronics engineers also tend to work with applications, withsystems rather than components and with synthesis and design rather than analysis.In the perspective of globalization the skills required of the mechatronics engineer has to be validon an international market, and “international skills” ought to be included in the curriculum. Thisarticle presents experiences from different modes of integration of international skills intocapstone courses and curriculum in mechatronics at KTH, the Royal Institute of Technology inStockholm, Sweden.In conclusion, international collaboration in the settings described can provide experiences ofworking in a global setting in order to prepare students for

We plan to examine the expectations, dynamics, and particulars of academicpartnerships and the reality of expectations of universities on both sides of the globe.International collaboration may not just serve as a trend, but it is almost an obligatory practicefor some of the private universities in developing countries, in few cases individual researchgroup, in order to seek visibility on the science and technology scene internationally, also haveinternational collaboration at the group level.

Through a thorough consideration of these themes, andconsultation with individuals and groups in education and industry, a list ofcompetencies, defining the global engineer, was formulated: ≠ Strong technical competency ≠ Use of creativity in problem solving ≠ An ability to see engineering projects in the context of multiple disciplines ≠ A recognition of the business implications of engineering work ≠ A recognition of the social implications of engineering work ≠ An ability to work outside of one’s trained discipline ≠ Adaptability, in type, scope

Students received one course credit (4 credit hours) for the program,"Engineering in a Global and Societal Context," which counted as a free elective or anengineering elective.This study-abroad program was designed to address a specific educational objective adopted aspart of Bucknell’s Civil Engineering program’s accreditation process: “Graduates of the CivilEngineering program will demonstrate professional responsibility and a sensitivity to a broadrange of societal concerns such as ethical

Yes, technology isimportant; yes, languages and the humanities are important. But, neither has the right to remain,if they are not responsive to the needs of students and society.International engineering, as an interdisciplinary response to the demands of today's globalworkplace, is a good example of academic entrepreneurialism. From an idealistic level, IEPstudents receive a broader and more liberal education, and yet, from a practical perspective IEPstudents are also more competitive in the world marketplace.

Consequently, “… engineering colleges must develop strategies that provide globalperspectives and international experiences to help their graduates excel in their future workenvironment” [4].Study-abroad programs is one of the ways universities have found to provide a globalperspective to students. However, it has two limitations: low participation of engineeringstudents and effectiveness in providing global perspective. The low participation is because onlyfew students can afford to have a study-abroad experience. Despite the growing awareness of thebenefits of study-abroad by students, the challenges preventing students from studying abroadare numerous and complex [5].
