This paper examines how KOSEN students can develop competencies needed as future global engineers, focusing on intercultural collaboration. In Year 1, we conducted a needs analysis and pilot-tested two initiatives that utilized on-campus international students as educational resources. The first was a faculty-led extracurricular program, the International Student Café, designed to promote informal exchange between domestic and international students. The second was a required co-learning module for all first-year students, jointly developed by Civics/Public and English faculty. In this module, international students first created short videos used in Civics/Public classes, reducing scheduling constraints. This was followed by in-person sessions encouraging direct discussion and interaction. The pilots contributed to internationalization at home, including the creation of a student-led exchange group and increased interest in other cultures among first-year students. However, both initiatives required substantial faculty time and coordination, highlighting the need for a more sustainable structure and clearer evidence of learning outcomes. This paper therefore proposes guiding principles for improving implementation in the following academic year.
