AbstractInternational graduate students in engineering and science deal with cultural shock as theynavigate and try to adapt to a new educational system in the United States of America (US) [1].Many international graduate students deal with multiple challenges which some of their USnational peers may not deal with [2]. For different reasons, graduate students may request tochange from one research group to

Although international graduate students constitute a high proportion ofengineering students in
Engineering, MechanicalEngineering and Computer Engineering. However, current robotic manipulators on the marketare expensive. Small colleges cannot afford to spend thousands of dollars on a single basicplatform. Educators who are attempting to improve manipulator to student ratio, for exampletwo or three students per manipulator, are even more constrained. Furthermore, the fixed setupof commercial manipulators makes it difficult to explain the internals of a robotic arm, whichdiscourages students from modifying the current system and developing a new system bythemselves. Among several affordable robotic arm platforms, such as VEX® robotic tool box1and LEGO® robotic tool box2, the VEX® robotic arm is a better choice due to the robust partsfor
