National Academy of Engineers (NAE) report on Changing the Conversation: Messagesfor Improving Public Understanding of Engineering revealed, there is a public misconception ofengineers particularly among minorities.1, 2 The study reported that Hispanic boys in generalbelieve that engineering has a positive effect on people’s everyday lives but Hispanic girlsbelieve that engineers are nerdy and boring. At California State University, Los Angeles(CSULA), a designated Hispanic Serving Institution, these findings are born out in the classroomwhere the overwhelming majority of Hispanic engineering students are male. Furthermore,while some Hispanic engineering undergraduates opt to pursue a master’s degree, very fewpursue a doctoral degree.3The IMPACT

therecruitment, retention, and graduation of under-represented minorities and women inengineering, significant discrepancies still exist and much work remains.Over the past ten years at Mercer, African-Americans have comprised 17.1% of studentsenrolled in engineering, while women have comprised 31.1%, on average. In addition,African-Americans and women represent a sizeable fraction of each graduating class(14.8% and 32.0%, respectively). These numbers are higher than those observed in manyother engineering schools across the country. Five-year graduation rates for African-Americans (as well as other under-represented minorities) and women at Mercer,however, are more in line with observations at other engineering schools.The purpose of this paper is to

It addresses the value of diversity they add, the contribution ofinternational graduate students to the university expansion, and the university’s internationalimage as a recognized institution around the world. In this research, we investigate the keyfactors that motivate the international students to join engineering graduate schools in the USA.We discuss the added values resulting from this mutual interaction, and how this interactionserves as a feedback mechanism to the assessment of learning and the expansion process.Some of the reasons that appeal the international students
