in today's fast-paced and rapidlychanging world ꞌentrepreneurial mindsetꞌ is recognized as a key trait. Entrepreneurial mindset is aset of attitudes, behaviors, and skills that enable individuals to identify and pursue opportunities,take calculated risks, and innovate in order to create value. The entrepreneurial mindset isimportant for several reasons. It promotesOpportunity recognition: Entrepreneurs are able to identify gaps in the market and come up withinnovative solutions to address them.Adaptability: Entrepreneurs are often faced with unexpected challenges and setbacks, and theability to adapt and pivot is crucial.Risk-taking: While not all risks pay off, taking risks can lead to learning and growthopportunities, and can help

This newfoundentrepreneurial interest was assisted by governmental legislation like the 1980 Bayh-Dole Act,which expanded opportunities for higher education institutions to transform federally fundedresearch into marketplace products [4]. Shortly after the implementation of the Bayh-Dole Act,higher education institutions started developing EEPs to provide opportunities for individuals togain knowledge and expertise on entrepreneurial mindsets and behaviors [15].The development of STEM EEPs in the United States coincided with external pressures from thenation [16]–[18].

This involves observations, as well as interviews informed byobservations and research, including the client in the process of problem solving to make aunique and well-suited solution for the given situation [6]–[8].When teaching the design thinking process, particular attention is paid to inspiration and ideationto develop a design thinking mindset. While inspiration is a unique aspect of design thinking,ideation has a good deal of overlap with the engineering design process, and is composed of twomain steps, 1) idea generation and 2) concept

Even though this is difficult to assess from the client’sperspective, 86% of the clients either agreed or strongly agreed that the students demonstrated anability to be creative and innovative. Two clients noted that the students did not demonstratecreativity and an entrepreneurial mindset. Moreover, thirteen clients agreed or strongly agreedthat the students communicated (orally and written) effectively during the project.

Introducing a customer with certain needs will be a good way to incorporate thecurriculum with an entrepreneurial mindset with a help of a needs-based design throughconsistent communication with the customer [26].

This tension between communicative skill and technical skilldevelopment in engineering curricular design is no longer necessary or productive. Remotecollaborative work, structurally induced in part by pandemic accommodations has introducednew communication styles, work styles, and projects that arguably better support theengineering- and entrepreneurial-mindset, as reinforced by organizations like STEMNext.org [3]and KEEN’s Engineering Unleashed training programs [4].What is Engineering Communication?O*NET descriptions of communicative needs for careers in Civil

The results provide a more detailed view of thelandscape and context of current advisory boards and engineering program interactions andinform the framework and playbook development. We discuss further how programs cantransform their IABs into Industrial Partnership Boards (IPBs) that are co-creators of thecurricular and/or co-curricular student experience. It is our belief that these deeper interactionswill drive transformational change at adopting institutions towards production of students withan entrepreneurial mindset that embraces the volatile, uncertain, complex, and ambiguous natureof future engineering practice.Introduction & BackgroundIndustrial advisory

The scaffolding to emphasize prototyping and adoption of aprototyping mindset may help as a pedagogical tool [33]. Artifacts that are created in thesecourses reflect tangible evidence of activity. From the idea to realization, there are means todescribe the role, purpose, and creation of prototypes. Gerber & Carroll [19] describe theconnection and process of prototype creation. Houde & Hill [20] discuss different types ofprototypes as what do prototypes prototype (function, looks-like). Makerspaces also provideadditional context for the tools, mindsets, and community of practice [21-23, 11].Design

Engineering DesignProgramConstanza Miranda, PhD 1*, Elizabeth Logsdon, PhD 1, Amadea Martino Smith 11 Johns Hopkins University, Biomedical Engineering DepartmentABSTRACTThis is a work in progress. To instruct design abilities in undergraduate engineering students, it iscommon for programs to engage in problem-based learning projects. In addition, project-based instructionis often done with students in teams and these teams have formal or informal leadership structures. In thiscontext, the success of the student project is usually attributed to the mindset of the leader, managementstyles, team dynamics that are cultivated by the leader, as well as a clear team structure and goals. Thisvertically operating leadership model is manifested as an
