“…A cross-course collaborative PBL has shown improvement in student retention and confidence [10]. Another attempt at cross-course projects uses data management concentrations [11]. The advanced database design course project aligns with the industrial project in a course at higher level.…”

“…It involves the industrial partner to support the project; a cross-course project involves complementary courses from the same university or organization [10]- [12]. Such experiences usually target senior year courses or capstone projects [11]- [12]; a student team may visit the host university under International exposure programs [13]. This engagement needs physical travel and stay for the duration of typically 4 to 12 weeks; the projects execute virtually using ICT [14]- [17] for students of diverse courses.…”

A modern engineer needs global competencies to work in a multinational team. Active learning during education helps to understand the nuances of such future engagements. Therefore, this paper discusses the dynamics of the crosscourse project for sophomores in a multicultural environment. The project is embedded within courses offered at two universities, which are spatially and temporally separated. At each university the course uses blended learning with project providing opportunities for online interactions and rest content coverage through classroom dialogues. The paper outlines the experiences of the students, faculty and provides recommendations for future implementations. The essential advisory is for: (1) Fine-tuning the framework for improving teamwork. (2) Supervising the groups and evaluating them as per the onshore university norms.
