I lived overseas for the first 13 years of my life because of my father's military background which allowed to have experiences outside of the culture I'm used to. It helped me diversify my viewpoint and learn how engineering may be used differently in other countries. Exposure to diverse cultures and languages helped me develop cross-cultural communication skills. Additionally, living overseas provided a view into unique engineering challenges that other countries may face.
As much as I would like someone more on the quiet side like me, I think having someone that is somewhat opposite to yourself is very useful for experiences and would push me out of my comfort zone. Someone who is interested in global engineering and is passionate about learning and exploring new ideas related to the field would also be nice. Communication is key, so someone who is open-minded and willing to compromise would go a long way in making the shared living space a better place for everyone, no matter where they're from.
Global Engineering RAP would allow me to add onto my experiences with other cultures and how engineering affects them. Living in a community with like-minded individuals who share similar interests and passions would allow me to form lasting relationships and connections. It would also help me develop my communication skills even with people who may not speak the same language as me. I would be willing to share my knowledge and experiences with others, collaborate on projects and assignments, and provide help where needed. Overall, Global Engineering RAP would help build my own personal resume for experiences.
