International Experience Program

An Elective Class for Undergraduate Students (E33 EECE 401)

To enhance and enrich the experience of undergraduate students, and provide a focused International Experience, this program has been initiated. Each year, students are selected for this program that will be guided by faculty from the Department of Energy, Environmental & Chemical Engineering. The highlight of the class is a summer visit to a city where partner schools of the McDonnell Academy are located. Students then register for the class in the following fall semester and engage in project discussions, presentations and report writing. This program will not only provide an International Experience to the student, but promote teamwork and leadership skill development.

Program highlights:

• Pre-visit orientation meetings and lectures every spring semester
• Students will visit a McDonnell Partner University School for 2 or 3 weeks during summer
• Engage in a project to enhance teamwork and knowledge of the field of Energy, Environment or Chemical Engineering
• Field Trips to local industries, regulatory agencies and laboratories
• Social programs
• Analysis of experience, projects, discussions and presentations in subsequent fall semester

 

With appreciation

The International Experiences are partially funded by the International Scholars Program and generous donations by Mrs. Gloria Feldman. Her financial support of the International Experience Program makes life-changing and career-enhancing opportunities possible for students in the Department of Energy, Environmental & Chemical Engineering.
