Withgrowing concerns about the declining number of students earning STEM degrees and the lack ofdiversity of the STEM workforce3, there is increased emphasis on expanding researchopportunities for undergraduate students, in particular those from underrepresented groups (i.e.ethnic minorities and women)10

A mental model captures a connected set of observations,assumptions and beliefs about a domain-specific situation that people draw upon when they thinkof the situation. Peter Senge writes, “Mental models are deeply held internal images of how theworld works, images that limit us to familiar ways of thinking and acting. Very often, we are notconsciously aware of our mental models or the effects they have on our behavior”12.

Thus, no single-level model can adequately provide a holistic account ofstudent outcomes of entrepreneurship education program because only limited conclusions canbe drawn from a single-level perspective.The third problem is the timing of measure. The ultimate impact sought from entrepreneurialeducation programs is the creation of an entrepreneurial mindset among the students. In order tomeasure whether the program creates entrepreneurial mindset among the students properly, theresearchers may need to wait years before the students graduate and then contribute toinnovations or new ventures in their later careers.

Because coop ed students often obtainedhigher than minimum starting salaries on their full-time jobs they tend to be more loyalemployees when compared to peers with lower starting salaries4. However, the actual length oftime the salary advantage lasts is arguable. Some researchers contend that the salary advantageseems to vanish within five years5,15. What seems to be less arguable are that women and thosewho would otherwise have little or no related work experience prior to full-time employmenttend to benefit more from coop ed experiences5,15.

What this means to developing wateroperators is that their educational training will function optimally if they perform tasks which aresimilar, if not the same, to those that they would perform during their careers. Therefore, theWTI program has embraced this time-tested philosophy.In effect, the WTI degree program is designed to integrate the established hands-on requirementsthat operators must meet in order to maintain their licensure with a classroom educationalcomponent, ultimately fulfilling

The intent of PLTW is to increasestudent interest in STEM careers through a rigorous, project-based curriculum. Despite thepopularity and rapid expansion of PLTW program in Iowa, little is known about its efficacy.This is partially due to the lack of studies with robust data, such as comprehensive statewide K-12 and postsecondary databases, or the lack of a control group where pre-existing differences instudent demographic characteristics, PLTW course enrollment, academic performance, andstandardized tests are considered
