Abstract
Many computer science programs require some kind of culminating capstone course where students demonstrate the skills learned in their CS curriculum. One skill that is becoming more critical in our ever-global world is the ability to work in an international setting. This paper demonstrates one way to incorporate international skills into a CS capstone course. We have successfully offered an international capstone experience for the last two years. Our intent is to share the results of our effort with the wider CS community with the hope that other schools see that the barriers to implementing an international course are low, and are encouraged to attempt similar efforts to broaden their students non-technical skills.
