Active learning hasbeen shown to be valuable in many engineering contexts.4 Some possible pedagogicalapproaches faculty can use when working with ethical discussions are small group discussionswith reporting, role playing,5 academic controversy (a form of debate where participants switchsides about 2/3 through the session),6 other social instruction strategies like collaborativelearning,7 and legitimization

IntroductionIn the last decade, there has been a significant increase of the number of community engagementprograms and a growth in research on these programs. As a result of this upsurge, newpublication venues have also been established, including the International Journal of ServiceLearning in Engineering (IJSLE) founded in 20041, and the new ASEE Community Engagementdivision founded in 2013.2 Related research has primarily focused on students, with particularemphasis on knowledge and skills; attitudes and identities; recruitment, retention, and diversity;and professional

These courses have proven verysuccessful, but may not be possible to implement at many colleges and universities due to resourceconstraints - practical hands-on courses require a low faculty to student ratio and schools may just nothave the funds to staff enough sections.This paper describes an approach to give lower division engineering students a structured introduction tohands-on engineering skills in a resource constrained environment.

It is also one of the few engineering organizations where librarians and professors arerecognized as academic professionals. First organized as a regional committee in 1941
results the Rover project provides for members who participate.After the project is completed, graduate students receive a survey of 15 questions, three of whichare listed in Table 1. From the survey, 100% of members said that the Rover Project helped themlearn the technical skills required to be successful in the industry. All of the students who haveworked on the Rover project said they would recommend this program to other students. Inaddition to what is listed in the table, out of the members who participate in the Rover project,95% receive highly desired jobs upon graduation both at the national and international level.ConclusionAlthough the Rover program requires a substantial amount time and effort on top of the routinelecture courses, the

competencies. Higher Education Institutions have been working on increasinginternationalization during the last years knowing that it improves our students’ ability to facefuture challenges.This internationalization has different phases. Deardorff et al. (2018) propose 6 phases. Phase 1:Study abroad programs with a transformative effect. Phase 2: International student recruitment:the bigger number of international students in the institution, the richer and more diverseatmosphere is. Phase 3: Coordination and Collaboration creating a centralized office. Phase 4:Building Community launching activities to strengthen links like an international day ororganizing receptions at the beginning and end of the academic year. Phase 5: Curriculumdevelopment

These competencies are (1) adapting socially, (2) demonstrating creativity, (3) evendisposition, (4) respecting beliefs, (5) instilling trust, and (6) navigating ambiguity. Internationalleadership managing international assignments seldom fail because of a lack of technical orprofessional competence but rather fail to build cultural awareness necessary for understandingdifferent cultures. Caligiuri and Tarique [15] identified lack of understanding of other cultures asa factor affecting the ability of leaders to lead across cultures and transfer foreign leadershipknowledge easily.

of programs and experiences that are offered to engineering students include studyabroad, globally-oriented class experiences, global projects, international internships, andinternational research experiences3,4. Study abroad experiences are often accomplished throughshort- or long-term sojourns, or bilateral exchange of students between universities. Someschools also offer global engineering courses that emphasize historical and cultural themes,sometimes through engagement with guest speakers.3 Service projects with global dimensionsare another prevalent program format. These program options vary according to factors such asduration, language requirements, context of work, extent of interactions with natives of the hostcountry, and

Key components of the program from the beginning were specialized languagecourses that included instruction in technical German and a six-month professional internshipwith an engineering company in one of the German-speaking countries.1 In 1995 an optionalsemester of study at URI's partner university, the Technische Universität Braunschweig, wasadded.
