Ingredient #10:  Outreach

Outreach is a key word which is applicable to any and all of the categories mentioned above in numbers 1 through 9. If the impetus for reform begins with language faculty, then this group needs to reach out to interested colleagues in the engineering disciplines. Likewise, if the impetus begins with engineering faculty, they should not undertake internationalization without the collaboration of language and international studies faculty. Just as one group cannot develop a program such as this exclusively within the university, higher education as a whole must reach out to the private sector rather than attempt program establishment internally. Only by means of a multisided partnership will the program be successful; only by means of a program, which is in the interest of all parties concerned, will the student truly be served.
