One issue Grollpoints out is that the current use of the term global competency within the engineering educationliterature appears to arise out of a Western, individualistic, competitive perspective [11]. Wherethe lists of competencies were formed with input from U.S. human resource representatives,successful U.S. expatriates, and U.S./Western European multinational corporate executives(Allert, Atkinson, Groll, & Hirleman, 2007; B.

TheASEE statement on diversity and inclusion describes the Society’s vision as to create and foster environments where every individual is respected and no one feels marginalized. ASEE believes that this can be achieved by supporting the education, recruitment, retention, and advancement of these groups in engineering education, engineering technology education, and the engineering profession. While ASEE recognizes that steady gains have been
