International Opportunities
To meet the National Academy of Engineers' “grand challenges” students must become more globally aware of social, economic, environmental, and technological issues and realize that engineering solutions must be appropriate for a geographical, environmental, cultural, political, and economic setting. The International experiences listed below help to prepare our students for meeting local, regional and global challenges.
