Thus, international training remains relegated tothe periphery of the curriculum, viewed by most students as an optional add-on to the traditionalcurricular core; only a few highly-motivated engineering undergraduates take advantage ofinternational training opportunities.Remedying this condition clearly calls for comprehensive curricular reform that guarantees thatall engineering undergraduates receive basic international engineering exposure, while makingan experience abroad (study or internship) so easy and attractive that many students will bemotivated to

Devoting this in-class time to background research was important for modeling the information literacy skills thegroups were expected to practice. The third class session was used to begin the fourth project task,which was to design the natural gas power plant using the Rankine cycle. This session was scheduledafter the more traditional lecture sessions in which the Rankine cycle was introduced and studied. In-class time was provided for this task because of its open-ended nature (i.e., groups had to chooseoperating pressures
