Intercultural competence is a critical area of focus in higher education as it enables individuals to navigate and succeed in culturally diverse environments. This crucial competence is essential for both personal development and professional success, particularly in information and computer science, where students are likely to contribute to the creation of computing and information systems that will have global impact. Study abroad programs are designed to provide students with first-hand exposure to different cultures, languages, and ways of life, making them an ideal setting for developing intercultural competence. And yet, there is relatively little research about study abroad programs in computer and information science or about the development of intercultural competence in students in these fields. This research begins to address this gap by undertaking a study of the development of each of the six components of intercultural competence through analysis of student reflections about their intercultural experiences with data during an information science study abroad course.
