However, competition for educated engineers has grownas other countries have expanded their research potentials and created more opportunitiesattracting international students. The difficulty of obtaining student visas by internationalstudents has curbed the number of science and engineering students studying at USinstitutions.Based on a report by The National Academies, to maintain and extend its excellence inscience and engineering, the United States must recruit the most talented people forpositions in academia, industry, and government. In order to do this, the bestinternational talent must be sought, while

It had its early start shortly after World War I. Colleges of engineering (or schoolsof engineering as they were labeled) were founded then, in Cairo and Alexandria, Egypt, andalso in Beirut, Lebanon. By the end of World War II, colleges of engineering sprung out in Iraqand Syria. And two decades later, Jordan had its first college of engineering in its capital,Amman. The colleges in Lebanon and Syria paralleled, by and large, the French schools ofengineering; except for the American University of Beirut (AUB), typically a North Americanschool

competence needs to become a key qualification for engineering graduates21.Students who have exposure to other cultures through focused coursework, interaction withinternational students, and classes led by foreign-born faculty may adapt better in a new workingenvironment overseas. The educated American of today will have to be fluent in at least oneforeign language, and knowledgeable about other countries and other cultures6. The authors havediscussed the development of a study-abroad program that meets two of the three key criteriapresented by the Council on International Education Exchange: travel to non-English speakingcountries which are not common travel destinations for Americans. It is expected thatparticipants will grow in their cultural
foundation to pursuehigher studies in SET subjects. . Despite this fact, the vast majority of high school graduateswould like to study courses that are related to SET subjects.The problems of existing higher education SET programmes in Afghanistan are thefollowing: i. Weak education in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) at school level due to lack of an integrated approach. Science, technology, engineering and mathematics are taught as four separate subjects rather than an integration of STEM into a cohesive learning paradigm based on real-world applications. ii. Graduates from high schools in countries such as Afghanistan do not have the same exposure to the role of science and engineering

We describe our internationalactivities with a focus on international students’ projects performed in cooperation with technicaluniversities abroad in order to offer the students the possibility to train their international skills.Developing and planning of such activities often gives some more practical challenges, such asdifferences in how engineering programs are designed, the differences in academic calendars andthe amount of credits given for projects and courses in different countries. In some cases, thedifferences in academic calendars are so big, that it is a major obstacle in arranging
