Paper ID #8363Global Science and Engineering Program: A Model for Uniform, Institution-wide STEM InternationalizationDr. Eck Doerry, Northern Arizona University Eck Doerry is an associate professor in Computer Science at Northern Arizona University. His re- search interests fall mainly within the areas of Groupware Systems, focusing on computer support for widely-distributed research and learning communities; and in Engineering Pedagogy, focusing on inter- disciplinary and international teaming approaches to teaching engineering design. Internationalization of engineering education has been a particular passion for Dr
. While being mentored by a local Belizean engineer on a stormwater management project for their school in Belize City, connections were made to a Professor of Civil Engineering at another US university who focused her International Engineering Field Experience course on their project. In May 2013, thirteen students from her class visited Belize to survey the site, teaching survey methods to the secondary school students as well. In May 2014, another group will visit to continue working on the project, which involves the creation of a detention pond and an ecological park for outdoor laboratory
