Adaptation of international engineering students in project based learning environment: A transformative learning experience

Internationalization of higher education has influenced the learning environment at many top ranked universities, especially in Western Europe. One of the important marks of internationalization is an increase in international student enrollment, which makes it essential to focus on the learning experiences of international students in such intercultural learning environments. This paper explores the learning experiences of international students at Aalborg University Denmark, which is having a learning environment that is practicing Problem-Oriented and Project Based Learning (POPBL) in all of its engineering programs.
