How will the new European qualifications frameworks and Diploma supplements contribute to meeting these requirements? How can mobility of students be increased and what is inhibiting mobility? This comparative study of course design, combined with feedback from employers and students examines these questions with students, staff and the professional community. The results show both mobility barriers from students and staff perspectives. The paper discusses potential opportunities to overcome barriers to mobility and enhance the opportunities for engineering students to have an international experience.
