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
