, many fortune 500 companies, such as Intel,IBM and GE have located their R&D centers in India. GE-India is working on advanced fields,such as computing and decision sciences, non-destructive evaluation, imaging technologies,electromechanical control systems, electromagnetic analysis and high voltage and high currentphenomena. Additionally, GM has an automobile plant in Chennai (South India) to be close tothe customer base. Several other companies, including Texas Instruments of the USA aremoving to India to setup plants to be close to the consumer market. This is feasible because theyhave easy access to highly qualified, talented, English-speaking engineering graduates requiredfor their companies. India has been supplying a big percentage
), Brian O’Connell (Student, Dublin Institute of Technology, Ireland)Faculty and programs in engineering/industrial technology often promote internationalexchange and study abroad as a desirable component of a university experience—particularly in this increasingly globalized world. But, what do students who haveactually had such experiences perceive? How do they view such experiences, before,during and after the event? The following paper evolved from the experiences of fouruniversities collaborating on an EU-FIPSE funded Atlantis project called DETECT thatconsist of the partnerships shown in Figure 1.

According togeneral standard and professional supplement standard for the professional accreditation ofthe Chinese engineering education, the accreditation practice at CUMT was described. It isconcluded that a specific the talent-training objective, rational curriculum, stable faculty, richcontents of professional courses, solid engineering practice experience, andinternationalization strategy of personnel training are powerful elements for accreditation ofthe engineering program.Keywords: mineral processing; engineering education accreditation; training objective;Curriculum; engineering practice; internationalization.Background and Significance about Accreditation of Minerals
in participating in the GC2017, the agendaof the event was refashioned to increase the engagement and leverage the expertise of thosepresent. While searching for international exposure as a common target for all the participants,due to the final layout of the event it was possible to summarize the issues of interest to them.The issues were collapsed eventually into four main interest domains, namely: Adapting to NewDigital Students; Competency-based Engineering Education; Games for Learning; andMathematics in the Engineering Curriculum.The GC2017 was deemed successful by the participants however several questions arise aboutthe ASEE community perception of the event importance as an internationalization tool for theUS universities.
