Global Engineering Competencies and CasesWhether working on multi-national project teams, navigating geographically dispersed supplychains, or engaging customers and clients abroad, engineering graduates encounter worlds ofprofessional practice that are increasingly global in character. This new reality poses challengesfor engineering educators and employers, who are faced with the formidable task of preparingengineers to be more effective in diverse global contexts. In response, more global learningopportunities are being made available to engineering students, as reflected in gradual yet steadyincreases in the number of global engineering programs and participating students.1 Manycompanies are also offering professional development

programs.Students may graduate with a strong grasp of the technical knowledge necessary to pursue acareer in engineering, but little awareness of how engineering projects impact the social fabric ofthe community in which they are erected. Many students, too, enter engineering, technology,and construction programs with little knowledge of the global applications their degrees canoffer. The Global Solutions curriculum at Indiana University Purdue University of Indianapolis(IUPUI) is designed to expand student outlooks by bringing together students of variousacademic and cultural backgrounds in a multidisciplinary program that explores not only thetechnical solutions to global development issues, but the social and cultural context in whichsuch solutions must

academic workforce requires adequate laboratory skills and experience level;c. A more specific requirement that resonates with the global competency of KU engineering graduates originates in the undergraduate engineering curriculum requirement dictated by the UAE Ministry of Higher Education, which states that, at the end of the junior year, every student must take an outside-the-university internship position related to her/his major (such as a hospital laboratory intern for biomedical engineering majors, or a software troubleshooting intern position as a computer engineering major, etc.);d. Lastly, despite the significant local-specific start-up parameters and constraints, the demographics of the UAE (a Gulf nation inhabited by 20
