ENGINEERING EDUCATION: INSTITUTIONALIZATION, INTERNATIONALIZATION, AND GRADUATE ATTRIBUTES

ENGINEERING EDUCATION: INSTITUTIONALIZATION, INTERNATIONALIZATION, AND GRADUATE ATTRIBUTES

Internationalization is becoming an agenda of growing strategic importance to higher education institutions across the world driven by influences of globalization. Embedding the internationalization process within the CDIO context would certainly benefit the higher education institutions and the attributes of their graduates. This paper suggests embedding implicitly the internationalization process within the CDIO standards without the need for creating additional mandatory or optional ones. The case of institutionalizing the internationalization process at the Australian College of Kuwait is then presented and discussed.
