, social, cultural, and economic issues thatare intimately connected to engineering issues and people affected by these engineeringchallenges. One of the most effective ways of providing our students these learning experiencesis through education abroad opportunities. Yet less than 4% of US engineering students studyabroad and there has been little growth in the past two years1. It is also well established that experiential, project/problem-based learning with an emphasison acquiring new knowledge and applying and integrating previous knowledge can be veryeffective structures for enhancing student learning2. These structures engage students in open-ended, ambiguous, authentic activities; and usually involve teams. It is learning that goes

many existing programs, which often began as experimental initiatives based on aparticular existing relationship to a particular university abroad. This often makes suchinitiatives both difficult to scale beyond the natural capacity of the initial partnership and, moreimportantly, difficult to expand to other departments, colleges, or institutions. What is needed isa robust, broadly-applicable model for pursuing internationalization of STEM education on acollege-wide basis.In this paper, we provide a starting point for this conversation by discussing our development ofthe Global Science and Engineering Program (GSEP), an ambitious internationalization initiativeuniformly spanning all science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) degree

That motivated us todesign and launch an Indo-Japanese program to execute a couple of projects. This paper presentsthe results and analysis of one successful project - a multi-cultural portal. It is aimed at helpingtravelers across cultures. While the portal is being architected to work for a number of cultures, itis being implemented only for the Japanese travelers visiting India.
