have to be creative to write the story, and then, at the same time, you have to constantly be looking at it and asking yourself. Does that make sense? Does that make sense? Does that make sense?”DiscussionThe emergent findings of this study suggest the presence of six research mindset themes: BeOpen-Minded, Believe, Persist, Be Honest, Be Critical, and Have a Writing Mindset. It isinteresting to observe that a few emergent themes for research mindset have also been seen forother mindsets but with different contexts attached to them. Being open-minded is a constructobserved in many other mindsets (e.g., entrepreneurial mindset [27] and design thinking mindset[28]). The context within which open-mindedness is considered is different in

goals of the PAtENT pilot program are as follows. The program goal is to create an alternatepathway for doctoral students in STEM domains to pursue entrepreneurship, through a patentproposal, that addresses the workforce landscape. The research goals are to understand theconditions that develop entrepreneurial mindsets in doctoral students, and how the PAtENTmodel can be scaled within our university and to others.PAtENT CurriculumThe curricular pathway is designed to be integrated into the doctoral degree program. Ratherthan operating as a standalone, extracurricular model, the PAtENT model allows students to optinto entrepreneurial coursework that counts toward their degree. Students whose preliminaryresearch demonstrates potential for

disconnect, support faculty in developingadvising relationships that are mutually valuable, and create an environment that engages facultyin conversations about graduate advising, we developed “Facilitating Engineering FacultyAdvising Success,” a four-part workshop series for chemical engineering faculty which is framedby the 3Cs (connections, curiosity, and creating value) of the Entrepreneurial Mindset (EM) [23]and the goals of the Mentorship 360 initiative [24]. This series was specifically developed toengage faculty in conversation about their advising experiences and to elicit faculty beliefs abouteffective advising strategies.
