They prepared for their experience by studying a year of Portuguese. Later, they embedded themselves in the culture by living with Brazilian students or families and taking a full load of college courses, all taught in Portuguese.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_298\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-298\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-298\" src=\"https:\/\/bsu-wpe-blogs.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/19\/2019\/11\/15082737\/95-Sustainability-2-2-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bsu-wpe-blogs.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/19\/2019\/11\/15082737\/95-Sustainability-2-2-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/bsu-wpe-blogs.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/19\/2019\/11\/15082737\/95-Sustainability-2-2.jpg 314w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-298\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">In the international exchange program, students study in Brazil, which helps them develop a broader awareness of the social and economic factors related to sustainability.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>By immersing themselves in the culture, students were able to open themselves up to different realities and sensibilities that they otherwise would have never been exposed to. \u201cWe take students with an excellent education from our home institutions and put them into a different context.

The four-year project (2008\u201312) addresses challenges of how to intervene in systems, including planning, designing, and managing local and global economic and community development, so as to produce a world that is ecologically, socially, and economically healthy. U.S. consortium partners include Texas A&amp;M University and the\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.cmpbs.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Center for Maximum Potential Building Systems<\/a>, a nonprofit organization; Brazilian collaborating partners are the University of Brasilia and the Catholic University of Rio Grande do Sul. The program addresses sustainability in developing regions by being conscious of social and economic factors.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Triple Bottom Line<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>As described by Motloch, promoting a more sustainable world in developing areas means pursuing a balance of \u201cthe triple bottom line\u201d\u2014being environmentally responsible, socially just, and economically viable. Students who have successfully completed the exchange will have come to grips with the challenges of maintaining that balance.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_299\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-299\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-299\" src=\"https:\/\/bsu-wpe-blogs.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/19\/2019\/11\/15082948\/arch-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bsu-wpe-blogs.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/19\/2019\/11\/15082948\/arch-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/bsu-wpe-blogs.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/19\/2019\/11\/15082948\/arch.jpg 350w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-299\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">When participating students enter the workforce, they have a better perspective of sustainability in urban planning and architecture.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Sarah Vessel, a recent participant in the exchange says, \u201cThis experience proved to be incredibly valuable to me.
