committees planned their tasks via Facebook messenger with some use of email and WhatsApp. In summary, the best practices that we observed from the execution of this camp as as follows: 1. Intentional planning to reduce power dynamics and keep focus on peertopeer relationships. This includes: a. Inclusion of graduate students as mentors b. Equal access to common resources c. Mixed communal housing 2. International collaboration in planning camp logistics 2. Summary From this study, we assert that the grassroots approach to creating an international partnership of student organizations is successful in achieving the important global competencies for engineering students. This approach gave

and institutional concerns, respectively.Time and complexity. Too many engineering curricula are notoriously inflexible, packed fullof required coursework with very few electives, and with no minor degree that one couldleverage for international preparation. Thus, for students, the primarily challenge is to find away to integrate an international experience into a busy schedule without substantially delayinggraduation. Specifically, the difficulty lies in (a) locating an institution abroad with suitablecoursework, that (b) does not cost substantially more to attend than one’s home institution, and(c) whose course credits will transfer seamlessly into the student’s home degree program.Resolving these difficulties is certainly possible, but the
