Abstract :
This paper demonstrates how the experience of working overseas can add value in broadening one´s character and diversifying one´s communication skills. Gaining overseas experience is advantageous in these times of global-scale thinking to have a greater awareness of the role of an engineer and to understand the benefits and pitfalls it can bring to developing countries.
